    Recommend a decent pipe bender for occasional DIY use?

    I can see plumbing becoming part of my DIY 'diet' in the next few years, so I've been looking at garnering a few tools together - one of which is a pipe bender. One for 15 and 22mm will do just fine. The options seem to be: A brand-new Hilmor or Record 'professional' type, A second-hand...

    Saw a returned Rothenberger tube bender yesterday

    Went into my local Plumbase yesterday and they had a Roberger bender behind the counter, apparently returned because the metal clips that hold the pipes (upside down U shaped hook) was crushing and marking the pipes. Had a look and instead of it being a nice round shape to correspond to the...
