JD2
ProTools
Make your own

Check in the vendor section on Pirate, some may have them on sale.

for the $$$, either one is just as good.

I've got the JD2 and have good luck with it

My advise, get the pro tools one. I had to get a new follower die for my JD2, 1.5" die, took them over a month. Pro Tools seem to have more in stock production.

Same happened to me but just opposite. I had the old school follower and time took its toll on it. Called JD2 direct to see how much a new one would be, they overnighted me a new one for free.

You can get it from pm tubing, they are back in behind northern tools, get ready to bend over. Most cages and stuff are made from 1-3/4 .120 wall. Die and manual bender is gonna be in the 600$ range.
