Default Re: tube bending software

i've never used a tube bender, but i've bent up thousand of feet of e.m.t., rigid, stainless, and aluminum conduit. is there really a big difference. i would think that the math would be the same. i would think that the major difference might be the tightness of the radius that would be possible. with the benders i use, i usually start by charting them, which is basically bending a stub 90, and keeping track of the travel. once i know this i can do the math and bend anything 90 or less with accuracy. i just say this because i 'm going to build a rollcage and bumpers some day for my cart and would like to know if i'm missing something before i launch into disaster.
