Anyone have a tubing bender for 1.5 x .120 I can take home to borrow or rent for a few days? I'm trying to rebuild my rear cage and the HF kinker is not working so well.

Thanks, Brad 440-225-9063

you can use my bender. but the dies are for 1 5/8 and what i was thinking we could do, is take some 1 1/2 inch conduit and split it lengthwise, and put it over your 1 1/2 inch pipe to act as a shim, we can try it, i think it might work. we only need to do this just once and then keep using it over and over.

Thanks guys.

Plumberbill said I could use his. I thought I rigged my HF kinker to work but anything over 20 degrees it start to flatten out the bends to much. I made new followers instead of the original rollers and that helped allot. I even tried filling it with damp sand and it still looks like shit after 20 degrees.

Plumberbill can I pick it up tomorrow?
