so what would be a fair price to charge a guy to make 6 bends on some 1-3/4 tubing. Im trying to finish off my front bumper and contacted a guy on craigslist being that i do not have the means to bend that tubing. hes charging me 20 bucks a bend is that fair??/??
 
How many bends do you need? Any idea on the angles and how close together? I would be happy to do it for you for a pack or corona. My cheapo harbor freight bender can do most bends but certain really tight bends or close together bends are not possible. I have the correct 1 3/4" die. I may need to do a little grinding on it to make sure it's a perfect fit for your tubing. I have not used that size yet and the other dies I used all required a little work before they seated the pipe perfectly. If your willing to come to me we can get it done. Shoot me a pm. I don't really know where your located, but if I'm too far you could try Max at dirtboundoffroad.com in San Dimas. He's a great guy, has all the tools, and offers great pricing on custom fab work.
