Diacro bender questions

[79bonanza]

Are diacro benders really worth the cost?

The dies are priced high, they're hard to find used and a used diacro bender is still pricey.

I mean what all can you bend, I know they can do tube and flat stock is there anything else?

Have you looked for any Diacro YouTube videos? I've seen a few. You're right, it's mainly used for simple stuff but I think you can do a lot of scroll type decorative bending with these things. I paid a grand for mine. Ouch. And it needs a good restoration. It's as smooth as butter in operation, but I haven't had a chance to use it yet. Contact Deiarco direct. Just a phone call away.

Yeah I watched their videos, they seem handy but their die sets are priced outrageously!!! I mean I'd loved to find a well tooled used one!
