I want to make a long sweeping bend in 2" OD .120" wall HREW. I have a JD2 for making 6" CLR bends, but the radius of these pieces would be something like 8 foot.

Obviously I could buy a roll bender from Baileigh or Pro-Tools, but it seems a little foolish to buy an $800-$1000 tool that I only want to use for an afternoon or a weekend.

Does anyone have one they'd let me borrow, or if shipping is cost prohibitive, within a reasonable distance so I could come to you?

Alternatively, Shane at Baileigh- who of your customers has purchased a roll bender and is somewhat in my area?

Thanks,

Do you guys think the el cheapo one from Harbor Freight is strong enough to bend two tubes about 12' total length? I guess as long as it lasts 2 hours, I'm good to go.
 
Thanks Kevin!
