[TheForge] Benders

        Hi Bill, I have a Hossfeld and use it occassionally.  The diacro is
a nice rotary turn table system that would be nice for a lot of different
brackets - your right if they come right on price, go for them.  The real
trick is like you mention -the dies.  If they are bare machines, they really
aren't worth as much as with a full set of dies.  Always good to bare in
mind when Auction Fever strikes.  :-)
