Need pics of Tube Bender stands....

[Greg]

A friend of mine recently got his JD2 and is looking for a few ideas on how to mount the bender. If anyone has pics of their stand or stands thay have seen else where, please post them here.

Heres what I have found.....

You didn't say whether it was for a manual or hydraulic bender. If your budget allows, definitely go hydro. With your bender on wheels, you can move the bender, rather than move things out of the path of your tube. Of course there are many options, but this is the one we've liked best.

His is Manual, already bought it & trying to keep costs down. Is your stand a Tool Tray with the top flipped? Looks good!

Most hydraulic benders are in the $1,000 range without any dies.

What white thing are you asking about???

I'm gathering pics of Bender Stands, so one of my friends can find what will best suite his needs. He recently purchased a JD2, manual and wants to see what others have used for Mounting it.

Hopefully one day, his Bender will be used for an Exo on my ride, !! We gotta get it mounted first!

Yeah, and it's only been sitting on the bench now for what, 2 or 3 months(or maybe 4 or 5)? Oh well. I guess when you have a job, that happens sometimes
