Good pipe bender?
http://www.medfordtools.com/mb3.html
I was looking at this the other day...just wondering if anyone has experience with it? I'll be doing basic stuff, nothing bigger than 2.5" OD, most likely 2" OD for sliders, bumpers, stuff like that.

That is a tubing bender NOT a pipe bender.
Pipe and tubing are not the same thing at all.
the difference.
Id recommend a JD2 tubing bender from Trick Tools as that is what I have. Im fixing to add the full hydro kit soon.

well, obviously you can't use pipe for sliders, right? That can do both tube and pipe, though.
I'm mainly just lookin for something cheap and effective, because I won't use it much.

If you are not going to use it much you are wasting your money...just buy the tubing bent or the product from someone else.
Look at the picture...that is a JD2 tubing bender they are selling.

Look at both the JD Squared Model 3 and Pro Tools 105. You can't go wrong with either. I am a PT fan myself. There are a few differences mentioned here: http://www.offroadfabnet.com/forums/...ead.php?t=1656
You can get pipe and tube dies for either.

I have a JD2 model 3 that i am converting to air over hydro right now. Been real happy with it, hope to be even happier with some one finger bending. I dont think you can go wrong with the model 3.
