Geoff, hook that puppy up with an inexpensive rig like I did, and it puts the fun back into bending tube, just like having a CNC, or a cutoff saw over a hacksaw, I can bend up all the pcs for a chassis in less than an hr, and not even break a sweat. The first couple of chassis I bent up, I did in the manual mode, not a lot of heavy work, just a lot of walking, but not bad considering what it's doing. I mounted mine on the end of my Bridgeport table, when I needed it, and that worked out ok. I think I did buy my log splitter from NH, cost about $400.00 back then, cut the wedge off the end of it, and used the rest for the bender bed. Bob
