In this video, I make an Industrial Design style Coat Hanger using Steel Rebar Rod to give it a real rustic industrial decor look. I love the look of industrial furniture and all the decor that comes with it, and this rustic coat hanger has the look I like. It was a good little welding project for me. I did not heat the rebar steel for bending; I just used bits of pipe that slid over the rebar to get the leverage for the bend.
The Rebar is a 7mm steel rebar rod
Main tools used: MIG welder, angle grinder, Hammer, and Milwaukee 10” Locking Pliers.
The Brand of the Drill bits and cutting/flap discs is "Alpha" If you can't get them at your local hardware shop, here is a link to Alpha Tools: https://alphatools.com.au

Always use all the correct safety gear, and use your tools safely. I am not a good role model for this.
Hope you found something of use in my video or at least found it entertaining.

Note: When you bend metal/rebar, you naturally weaken it. Bending it cold will normally cause fine cracks, and it may even break if you put enough strain on the rebar or bend it in the same place too many times. Do not rely on cold-bent steel/rebar to support a load.
