Default Who has used this or one like it?

Has anyone ever used the Speedway Motors bender or an equivalent? Any thoughts or contructive criticism?

Ok, maybe a little different wording? Anyone use an upright bender of any sort? Feedback?

We have the speedway motors bender. To be honest for the price it gets the job done very well. however if you plan on doing a lot of bending on a regular basis I would go for something a little less labor intesive, because pumping the bottle jack will get annoying.(I think it's like 105 pumps per 90*)

I have one in the shop. Great little bender for the $$$. Do yourself a favor and get a air over hydraulic cylinder to work the ram. Takes out all the manual pumping.

Well I just ordered it and I was going to order the air over unit but I was unsure of the stroke of the manual cylinder.

Where besides harbor freight has the air over units? The foot control and the cylinder?
