Affordable Tube Bender.

I have used one like that before, with a little creativity they work very well, and could do most anything you need them to do.

I would have no problem building a cage bumpers whatever with one of those

Thats what I needed to hear.
Thanks

Cuervo, is that your setup? Any details on the pump, etc?

Looks awesome!

Yes, it's my home build. I think there is a thread in the this section on it.

interested in a review of this once you use it.

Im happy with it.
Bent some 1.75 .120 for my engine cage and 1.50 .250 wall for my trac bar.
Want to build a stand for it.

 

[wage92]

you bent .250 wall with that? and it seemed alright?

 

[odin]

Yep.
They dont recommend bending .250 wall, but I did anyway. The tubing bent fine and the dye is undamaged.

sweet, i will probably be picking one up, just searching craigslist to see if i can find good deals on any others first...

This is the bender we have: http://www.speedwaymotors.com/3rd-Generation-Hydraulic-Round-Tubing-Bender,6614.html Worked pretty good so far. Only issue we have run into is that it will no longer go up to 90 degrees since the tube strap has stretched out. My bro is thinking of making a new one out of steel

Thats similar in design to the Affordable Bender.
I considered that one, but went with Affordable because the dyes look beefier and two sets are included in the $435 shipped price

Oh dang, that is a good deal. We only got 1 die included
