Did your sort out your arch debate?
Can anyone recommend a firm who can draw-bend tube with a quick turn-around capability?
PS - Just to make sure I have this right... draw-bending is the neatest way... or is it!?
Ta!
Good grief... 15 minutes and 14 views and no-one has an answer for me yet!?
Pah... when I were a lad, I would have had 74 answers by now and 20 offers to do the job.
I can remember when all this was fields you know...
Think you ought to ask "you-know-who"

Don't you have any local engineering shops?
None of the local shops do tube-bending...
What are you looking to do Scootz ?
Don't say "bend tubes", 'cause I'll just have to call you names.
What's the job ?

Crikey... you've not left me with much left to explain Zil! 
I want to bent a roll-bar for a single-seater along with two smaller hoops for the cockpit bulkhead and footwell. They will all be on display, so the
bends must be pretty!
MNR have a mandrel bender http://www.mnrltd.co.uk/p_services_fabrication.htm
Merlin bend tube to order as well. http://www.merlinmotorsport.co.uk/SHEETS-AND-TUBING/c321/index.html
MK Engineering used to do it but don't advertise the service on their website any more.

To answer an earlier question...
Why yes, yes he does. The gentleman can also get "bends" in at good prices too!
