Micromark Bending Machine - Upgrade?

[Wildefarer]

I got this Hand cranked roller based bending machine from Micromark and it does an ok job on small gauge rods and flat stock. Brass, Plastic and Wood even. Allowing me to bend very nice curves.

I tend to do a bit heavier stock than this device can handle.

I am wondering if anyone knows of a "Professional" version of this without going to a powered device. I can find nice hand cranked rolling mills for drawing wire and stock, but I haven't located a professional version of this device.

Thanks for any input,
Wildefarer

The Shop Fox shear/ brake/ roller is a nice little machine for the dollar amount.

Not knowing what exactly your planning to use it for it's hard to say what might suit your needs.

Harbor Freight has a Benchtop Rolling Mill w/5 rollers. This might be the next step up from that micromark.

You probably can look at sheet metal machines & related iron work tools. Grizzly has a 12 inch slip roll. Harbor freight used to sell the equivalent to that too. Other than that if its just up to 1 1/4 flat bar and wire bending and its fairly thick. HF sells a Metal Planetary Ring Roller also.

There's always seeing if Russ or some of the other professional machinists can make a more HD version of the micromark for you too, but that'll probably be more expensive than the above links to existing tools.
