Need tips on bending SS tubing

[Ohio-Ed]

With the PM's I got, I went ahead and put a quick page up for these. It's not in the site nav yet, only available through this link: http://www.brewershardware.com/PickupTubes.htm

Sorry to have kinda hijacked your thread here Ed.

No problem Derrin... wish I had thought to contact you before I went through the hassle to bend my own. Yours look mighty nice.

Hey All,
I am a pipe fitter who works in the semiconductor world, I have done a lot of bending of SS tubing and pipe in the 20 years I have been in the trade. The best benders are made by Swagelok in my opinion, they are very pricey but worth every penny. I went out to our shop today and grabbed some 1/2" 316L .020 and bent it with out any deformity to the tubing. Here is a link to the benders I am referring to;
