williams low buck tube bender

has anyone had any experience with their lowbuck tube bender. it only cost 500 and comes with one die set so that sounds like a pretty good price, plus im on a budget. heres a link http://www.lowbucktools.com/hydbender.html thanks

No experience myself, but I believe this is one of the benders that Ian from extreem 4x4 recomended. Don't know if you watch the show, but it was on this past sunday.
It seems like a good quality bender for the money. The only negative thing i see with it is it will only go up to a 90 degree bend.

you could make that for under 500. The bolt to the ground ones are the way to go IMO. the dies are whats expensive

What size tube you looking to bend?

Heres a site you may have already seen but some nice benders!

Yeah...I am just saying that he did a show showing tools and tricks for the do-it-yourselfer, and he recomended that bender as a good starting point.

yep i saw the extreme 4x4 with it on it thats how i heard about it but i decided to go with a bender that would be a little faster and have a little bit more die options than the lowbuck bender. heres a pic and a link to the site for the bender i ordered
