I use Imperial Eastman hand benders for a living. I have run miles of tubing in some very unique ways, tight areas, etc...very pleased with all of the sizes. Tim john---

Imperial Eastman tubing benders are often available on Ebay, so you might try there. Mark at Bent Custom has recommend those benders in a past thread.

Bonaco has one that 15/16" radius TB-6

And if you need they have a 37* flaring tool that is the bomb -- HFT-01 -- I've bought a bunch of different flaring tools, trying to get one to work correctly, AND THIS ONE IS THE BEST BY FAR

They also have everything you'd ever want LOL

Here's their catalog -- takes a while to download -- page 33 is the tools
