Wondering if someone that could point me in the right direction for a good quality tubing bender for fabbing roll cages, bumpers, sliders, etc.  Something easy to use and durable for production purposes.  Also, any info on a nice degreeable tubing notcher.  Thanks for the help.

Uhhh they suck.  I have one it is pretty decent fordoing little things but about the sharpest bend you can do without a kink is around 35 degrees.

Basically yeh but the one Ive got is orange.  The cyl just pushes the tubing against 2 rollers and they force a bend against the die.
