[TheForge] angle/ring roller suggestions?

[Mark and Belinda Warren]

john,

I've looked into similiar machines, Ercolina, Americor, Eagle.  The last
quote I recieved from Eagle Bending Machines for their model Z302 section
bender was selling for $4300.  This is my first post to the forge.  I've
been waiting for something to come up that I had an idea about...thanks.
Anyway, the Z302 had the optimum capacities I was looking for plus it
tooling was upgradeable.  I'm still making do with my home built but hope to
be able to secure one this year.  Eagle's web page is
www.eaglebendingmachines.com  I also checked into their more portable
version Model # CP-20  it sells for $2990.  Hope this helps.

Regards,

Mark Warren

Happy New Year to All!

After discussing the needs of the shop for the upcoming year with she
who writes the checks, we've decided to upgrade to a new ring/angle
roller. the current home built roller works well for some basic
operations, but has the downside of being closed on both ends which
limits its  usefulness  especially with heavier stock. does anyone have
suggestions on  what to buy in the 4-5k  range?
