Anyone got a decent add on angle measuring device for a tube bender? Also I know some of you use programs for laying out bends, whats good whats not?

i just use one of those cheap magnetic angle finders that you buy from sears, and just stick it to the pipe as you bend it. I have the degrees machined onto one of my bending die, and I used a piece of wire as a pointer, sometimes thats a pain in the butt, but you can buy little plastic degree wheels or even, i think they have a degree stick tape at McMaster Carr, that you can stick to your die and use a pointer.
