Build a few other things. Sell them on CL. Pay back bender.
Build a few more things. Sell them on CL. Profit.
Etc etc etc.
I really wish I had a 1.5" die and bender. I want to build a custom roof rack and bed rack for my truck.

I have decided to go with the Model 600 Tradesman that comes with the following 5 piece die set....
*2.00×6.00″ CLR (Center Line Radius) Die Set
*1.75×6.00″ CLR HD Die Set
*1.50×4.50″ CLR Die Set
*1.25×4.50″ CLR Die Set
*1.00×3.50″ CLR Die Set
They do allow substitutions and thought it might be good to have one square tubing die. Not sure which one to omit or what size square tubing die to get. I was thinking the square tubing for roof racks.

Bender arrived this past Friday. Assembled and finished over the weekend. Also got their notcher and have already used it on a friends shock hoops. Worked very well.

nice. good job on stepping up and getting something that will work for many projects. should have this thing paid off in no time.
i just have one die with my pro-tools 105HD. i have the 1.75x240 radius. i figure if i need a 1.5 die, i can just make a sleeve to fit my die to accept a 1.5 tube. my buddy did this and it works pretty good.
i also have the notcher, makes easy work and precise notches. no grinding for hours. lol.
now go make some money with that thing. people will pay.
