I was just wondering is this Bender would work good enough to add some 1.5 .095 DOM tubing to my buggy.
Here is a link:

Nope, that type smashes the tubing.
What you want is the type that pulls the tube around a mandrel.

I got mine off ebay for 300 bucks shipped. I bent the tube next to it 5 minutes after taking it out of the box. It works perfectly & I dont think there is a cheaper one out there. Check out my build for photos of what I did with it. Find one of the auctions that has the best offer option & offer 260.00 & you will get it.
