I bought a JMR tubing bender. I got just there manual bender with an 1 1/2" die with a 5" radius and i love it. I wouldn't mind upgrading to an hydraulic but wanted to make sure i like and use it enough. I absolutely love it. Here is where i bought mine http://www.tricktools.com/ . You really should buy this mount for you protractor though when you get a tubing bender. It is a necessity for doing multiple bends. Also you should get some lube for the dies so you don't wear them out. It helps preserves them and they are not cheap. Here is a pic on what i did with mine
