good afternoon all.

Ive looked at hiring a a hydraulic pipe bender and they want £30 for the week. this seems ok but I wondered if anyone who knows me wants to hire me one for the same price. Least the money goes to people who are in the collective.

I will leave my passport and driving license as deposit if required.

I will need it for a week or a long weekend.

I work in Leeds/Bradford and live near lincoln n scunthorpe.

Thanks

You wont need a hydraulic bender for 25mm - I bend 32mm (1 1/4" - 2mm wall - on a record plumbers hand bender all the time .

Are you doing them with one hand tied behind your back nowadays Claire ? Hope the hand is getting better.

I chopped a selection of bends out some scrap metal framed chairs I got for pennies from the tip, then just welded in when making the rear tub corners.
