    I bought one of these a few years ago.  Very useful for makjng terrible 
quality, kinked, bends.  If you want anything decent to result, you're 
going to have to fill the tube with sand and weld caps on the ends.  At 
which point, you may as well suck it up and buy a real bender.

    I liked this tool so much I don't know where mine is.  I think I loaned 
it out with the stipulation they never bring it back.

    It's a pipe kinker, not a bender.
