Default Bending AC Lines

I want to run some aluminum AC lines. I want to use a bending tool to make some nice uniform bends. I can find in-expensive tubing benders (since it is soft aluminum, a big dollar bender is not required), but they only go to 1/2" (-8) HF has them only to 1/2". I need to bend some 5/8" (-10). Any suggestions?

I would like a multi- size bender to go from -6 (3/8") to -10 (5/8"). The McMaster ones in that range are $400.00. The HF bender is $30, but only accomodates 1/2" or 7/8" tubing (no 5/8").
