protools HPM 200???

[carczar_84]

Anybody have any experience with this bender? They have free plans on their website for building it. Any good or bad stories would be great.

Also, i've been looking for plans for the JD2 model 3, or Protools 105 bender, does anybody have drawings for either of these?

Thanks again,

This is an inexpensive solution, and a great way for someone on a tight budget to get into a bender....although......

This bender is quite limited (90 degrees) and you will also sacrifice bend quality due to the lack of a fixed counter bend die. You will get flattening on the outside of the bend.

Do a search there is a thread on this forum with the blueprints for the JD2 bender.

If you can't find the thread send me a PM and I'll hook you up.
