Bent Fork : quick fix

This is a jig I made one day after I picked up a used bike that had a bent fork.
Using (2)2x4's,(3)U-Bolts, (6) Hex-nuts, and (1) Wrench, I was able to make my fork nearly perfect. This process is a lot of trial and error and could definitely take an hour or so.

These photos were taken by my friend who used the jig with decent results:
