Default Pipe Benders

It turns out that the build crew (brother, nephew and I) have an expanding need for Roll Bars.

I'm considering having two, one for track-days etc and one for 'normal' driving. Bolting them in/out as appropriate.

For example I'm thinking the 'track' roll bar would have one of those forward braces, maybe some more side intrusion protection and possibly some reinforcement for the under dash hoop.

So - for me - a logical extension of that is to get a pipe bender (any excuse for a new tool) and bend up a couple, I was wondering if people bent thier own and, generally, if anyone had any words of wisdom/tips/traps.

thanks
