Im going to have to make my own roll-cage because of my height. (6'10"). Does anyone here have any good suggestions on a good pipe/tube bender?

if this is your only cage i would buy the Carey Bender from AllStar like 500$ with one series of dies and 275$ for each size die set. Or you could just buy mine with 3 sets for 500 so I can go buy a new mandrel bender for my business. it works good but its time for me to step up to automated.

jd2 model 4 is what i have, works great and comes with a one set of dies. It depends how much your looking to spend, a nice manuel bender could get you by if you only plan to do a couple of projects but if you plan to bend alot hydraulic is the way to go.

my dad built his electric over hyd and he is happy with it.
It is a JD2 model 3 I believe.
ALso, software is the easy way to model it before you waste all that precise material.
