what do you guys use? No matter what clips I use it ends up just banging around making lots of noise. Nothing I have tried secures it to the ply snuggly. So needs some ideas. Ideally I would like to clip it to the ply sides
 
An electric one in a new box Remo Curvo or sothing like that, I would be making bend all day with it, or round the bend
 
till you run out of clips on a job and just quickly nick it off your holder then BANG benders on the floor because you dint put one back :rofl:
cut the waste pipe and 45o then screw it too the racking

Pop the caps off the arms on your bender slide a guide in each arm then pop the cap back on ! Thats what i do ! Never loose them !
 
I wrap mine in a few rolls of PTFE,

No, seriously, use plastic pipe problem solved,

I do have some pipe benders in a bit of 110 soil pipe and two clips, mainly as a homage to dinosaurs using copper.....

I'm on holiday now for a week, by the time I get back this thread would have disappeared so I don't care about the abuse.....:24:

blimey squirrel, plumbing has made you rich. All these extravagant holidays you keep going on. so the old tale is true, you must be earning 50k a yr!!!:1eye:
 
3 pieces of soil screwed and glued into ply to hold J guage, level, stop tap keys and long drill bits. 2 pieces of 40mm waste glued in the gaps to hold benders and then 4 bits of 32mm waste glued to these to hold formers. All held in place with the religous metal. Burning kit bungeed in front of it.

I attach a couple of tie wraps to both of my machines and hook them over screw in hooks attached to the plywood. Never move and easily to attach or remove.
