At first, staff tried bending the tubing with a pipe bender, however, it would kink and it was not bent consistently. One day, the City of Buckhannon Street Commissioner Jerry Arnold was mounting truck tires and he thought, "This machine has all of the functions I need to form the tubing. It rotates and can create down force." Using the truck tire changer, city employees were able to successfully roll the pipe into the tubes needed for arch supports.
