Bunnings don't do anything like that...

good work...

tip for you for next time..if you want to eliminate the little dents inj the tube where it sits on the rollers get some 40nb tube about 100mm long and cut it in half..place it over the tube between the tube you are bending and the rollers..it will spread the load and wont kink your tube...i actually used to have two pieces welded to the rolers...worked good and i did heaps of bends with it..
