Going to try and do some bending to see how it goes DrDuck.
Going to be nice to be able to bend some Hungarians. :p

Yes it is an Ebayyy Special.
Around $100.00 delivered.
I was nearly going to build my own to give that fuzzy "I built That" feelling but as usual time constraints put a stop to that.
If I do not like it I will salvage the bed and bar from it and then build my own. :) :)
I do not put much faith in the cast clamps that come with it. Very light cast metal and do not reach to over half of the clamp bar.
I will obtain some decent ones before I break them. LOL

You have now got me inspired for a project after Christmas.
Another banker, Folding version.,, Hmmmmm,
 
LOL at Slipped one,
I just broke the clamps in half. :8
They are not of the best quality and as I suspected they do not reach half way over the clamp bar.
The way they were was a bit of a problem as when you go to bend, They have a tremendous amount of force on them due to leverage.
Still worth it in my books so will invest in some real clamps and then I will be happy. ;)
