[Shop-talk] tubing bender dies

[Dave]

They did have a cast iron one (3165T43) that was only $29.  $60 to save you an afternoon's work might be worthwhile.

Dave,

That's not a bad idea, unfortunately I just checked and all of the
pulleys designed for 5/8" rope are pretty darn expensive and I would
need at least two of them :(

For the moment John's idea of how to make the pulleys is probably the
easiest/cheapest approach.
