Do the specified costs (tube bends, cuts, end preps) also require assembly time or is that incorporated into their costs?

ie i have frame tubes that are bent, but does it also require an assembly entry for the time it took to make that bend?

I understood the assembly costs as what it takes to put two parts together. In your case, I would say that the bent tube is a component. If you welded something to that tube, the weld would be part of the assembly cost.

The tube segment itself has no assembly time.
