    The one with the angle finder is awesome! My one suggestion would be to lengthen the aluminum so it runs the length of the handle. Keep 'em coming!!!

    Such a amazing little compact bender. The only mod i would consider for myself is a 90 degree base mount to stick it in my vise, so the bender is horizontal. Its more so i could look down at it vs crouching down as my vise is at about 40 inch off the floor.

    Just an idea… the red 3D printed jig you were showing could perhaps be changed to have a mark on both sides of the jig to help “pin point” the radius start point and 3D print the degree of angle on the side as well to help in these steps to make it easier

    FYI when making brake lines there is no flares or nuts you add them after you make your bends but I agree you can’t get a tight bend with a brake line bender

    Hello Josh! I purchased your bender and built it, I didn't see the angle gauge pieces on your site with the rest of the 3d printed parts or your thingiverse page. Can you perhaps drop a link to them? I'd really like to add that to the bender. Great work, by the way, I love it!
