PIPE BENDER

[mauser]

Does anyone here in England know where I can get a pipe bender which will bend 1/8" or 3mm pipe. I want to make up some fuel line but can only find tools which start at 6MM. I would buy from the USA if I can't get what I need here so if you know of a company outside of England please let me know anyway. There must be loads out there but after searching the net for an hour, I've given up.

Try an auto tools supply store, brake repair shops use benders for brake lines which have a variety of smaller sizes. I have one in the shop, Im away at the moment or I would take a pic....

Also if you only need one or 2 bends and know how far you want to bend it.. take the pipe to your nearest FRIENDLY brake repair shop.... probably do it for free....

Maybe not.... but I did say 'friendly'..... ;D

Thanks for all the replies. It seems there is a supplier, Chronos, just up the road from me. Typical !!
