JD Squared makes a good economical bender.
Makes very nice bends.

I've used exhaust benders on roll bar tubing for years and it does a pretty fair job,as long as you don't go past 90 degrees{for some reason it gets all stupid and starts to flatten the tubing past 90}I now have a JD2 model 4 with a hydraulic/air cylinder.It was about $2000,but it works really well and will bend to 180 degrees.The thing I didn't like about the tube shark is that it was verticle instead of horizontal,it seems like it would be hard to lay another peice of tubing on top of it to copy a previous bend,but I'm sure there is a way,and you'd get used to it.Ron

There are many simple manual benders on the market for the "garage" builders out there. Just google tube benders.

I just converted mine to pneumatic/hydraulic, good bender for the money invested. Now if only I had a DRO of the angles and could set the bender for spring back and other nice features lol Originally Posted by 67speedfreak
