Tube Benders

Just in case i need to get my tubes bent professionally - I called some.
I started with Barnshaws - as they came up first on a google search and ive always been impressed with the arch of railway line outside their factory in Tipton. Helpful as they were, my job is clearly too trivial for a company that has the "capacity to curve tubes up to - 1067mm o/d." So they put me onto Formbend who were also very helpful but only had one set of formers for my diameter of tube, so unless I wanted all my bends to be of 80mm radius, they couldnt help me. So they put me onto Accurate Section Benders who appear to be able to do whatever i want.
I shall send them a spec and see what thier prices are like
