| 4655 forum posts 304 photos | I checked middle of Lidl without result, but today in the smaller of the two Lidls at Worle near Weston Super Mare, there were two still for sale and I bought one. Thanks for the tip, we need to modify some existing tubes to fit another helicopter exhibits and the bender will come in handy, it is quite well made. It does 6, 8 and 10 mm pipes and will also get by on 1/4, 5/16 and 3/8 inch ones well enough for us. The pipes are aluminium. |

| 320 forum posts 1 photos | Beware the pipe bender on 10 mm or 3/8 pipe. The bending radius is very tight and you are likely to get crinkling. Martin |
