    Abstract: A wheel that deforms to absorb force is provided. The wheel includes one or more deformable spokes that extend from a central portion of the wheel to an outer portion of the wheel. The spokes are configured to interface against neighboring spokes after a spoke is sufficiently deformed. The neighboring spoke provides some support to the deformed spoke, thereby requiring an increased marginal force to further deform the first spoke. In one embodiment the wheel includes a plurality of pairs of spokes that are configured to interface against each other.

    Abstract: A tool for bending an elongated workpiece includes a shaft having a first shaft portion and a second shaft portion, and a coupling assembly coupling the first shaft portion and the second shaft portion. The coupling assembly has a locked configuration in which the coupling assembly inhibits movement of the first shaft portion relative to the second shaft portion and an unlocked configuration in which the coupling assembly permits movement of the first shaft portion relative to the second shaft portion. The tool also includes a shoe coupled to the second shaft portion. The shoe has a curved bottom portion and a hook configured to hold the workpiece against the curved bottom portion. The curved bottom portion is engageable with the workpiece to bend the workpiece.
