i'm using an old rigid bender i got off ebay, don't get the el cheapo ones with 3 grooves for 1/4, 5/16 and 3/8...i tried one and first bend snapped one of the arms off...cheap cast junk.
mine's the same as this one...works a treat on 4130 up to .065 wall...will do thicker but it's hard work...i use .049 for my cages and it's pretty easy with this bender...it'll also do 1/4 and 5/16 even though the groove is for 3/8 http://cgi.ebay.ca/Ridgid-3-8-OD-Tube-Tubing-Bender-15-16-Bend-Radius-/190547373865?pt=BI_Pipe_Benders&hash=item2c5d822f29
