I already know what is going to happen so I am going to say this. Unless you yourself have personal experience with this product keep your .02 to yourself.
I am looking into the dreaded 12 ton HF pipe bender. The purpose of this tool Is to bend Pipe and maybe tube to create a rear tire rack and possibly make a rear hoop for my roll cage to turn it into a family cage. The material being bent will be .120 wall 2 inch tube or 2 inch or sch 40 pipe if that comes up as a better option.
I see lots of people who simply cap the tube "not pipe" and fill with sand and water. They make flawless bends with relative ease.
The I hear about people who find it to be a complete waste and kink every pipe and tube in sight.
This guy seems to have gotten it dialed in.
