Unless you know what you are doing it is easy to ruin the pipe. The harder the material the easier it is to crack or crinkle the pipe. I bent my share of hydraulic, fuel and oil lines for USAF aircraft. We had the best mandels possible and every so often you would screw up one.

My questions is what is your experience? It would be easy for you to crack it and then have it fail while in use. 300 dollars may seem like a lot to you but it will be done right, also you get what you pay for and I bought a freezer from Sears cheap. Well it did not last 3 months and lost over 300 dollars in chicken and steak.

So your "cheap" part can end up costing you dearly!
