pipe benders

Post by slosh »

Been looking to purchase a pipe bender, and got some info on the speedwerx one ($740 for bender + $680 for 2" die + $130 freight + GST). Also priced a 2" Dawn bender at Blackwoods at around $1350 tho you get about six dies with it.

Which would be the better value, or is one style a lot lot better than the other? I've seen a few benders at workshops, all with the bow and arrow style and they all seem to do a good job.

Does anyone know of other makes worth considering?

Thanks for any tips.
Josh.
