Hi

I would like to draw up a kind of bending jig for steel tube structure.

My question is, how much smaller must the radius be, if the initial or the drawing is asking for 10" , 12", 20" and 32" radius like a PA18 Rudder and the the tube is 1/2" and 0.035 thick?

Does there existe any kind of literature for this?
