What are ya'lls (I'm in Texas remember) experience with varying plunger type strap bending presses. Any recommendations?

One of our shops uses this model and they claim it works pretty good.  This type allows you to change diameters as needed.

If you have a press you can make your own die and plunger as detailed in the D1.1 book.

Ya'll have a good one!

thats almost free and it doesn't occupy any time on your break. thats a good deal.
couldn't make it in house for three times the cost
im sure the in house dies we have  cost a lot more to make and they are limited to one length of  coupon

With a little modification and shop built dies, a Harbor Freight $100 pipe bender could do what that machine in Bill M's link does. I guess it depends on weather You find it easier to pay for a ready to go machine or cobble one together Yourself.
