Re: Spring tubing bender
They are OK. The spring type benders of all sizes suffer the same limitations, risks of getting stuck and all. Lubrication can help.

Re: Spring tubing bender
I remove plastic coating of 1 mm diameter garden wire, then wrap the iron wire around tubing closely. After bending unwrap wire.
