Biso Bender

I _assume_ that "the" thing to get to bend music wire is a Biso Bender from Harry Higley & Sons -- true, or is there some other hot ticket out there?

Will a Biso Bender make coil springs ala front LG struts on trike gear planes, as well as making nice right angle bends in reg'lar wire?

Thanks...

This would work better for what you want to do. The Biso Bender is good for 90 degree bends, but would be a pain for making loops in wire.

I use the K&S bender for bends & coils:

Isn't the Biso for tubing, not wire?

It is for tubing but will work for wire also, just not looping it. The K&S wire bender would be ideal for coiling.

I suppose you are correct but it said "tubing bender" on the website and doesn't look beefy enough for 1/8" wire, at least to me. Gonna get me one of those K&S benders tho, thanks for the info on that.
