Removed the lower capstrip from the bender when i got home tonite. It fit perfect. It slide right in with no problems. The bender will work great for all my 3/8 capstrips, but i'll have to make a new one when i get to the 1" capstrip. Lucky there are only 4 of those. Next is the plywood nose piece. It will take alittle more planning but i hope to bang that out on friday.
