I have a JD2 bender.
I was talking to Sillyneck and he mentioned that JD2 might have the bender software on their website.
Just looked and can't find it.
Where can I get this or any other bender software for free on the web?

Try a search on the net for Advanced Tubular Technology or break out your trigonometry book!:D

I've played with some off the bending software before and it does have some neat features, but for the most part I can just as easily figure out on paper what the software will tell me. There are cetain things like simple hoops that I can figure out faster in my head than punching it into the computer. IMO the sofware is not neccessary, just get a calculator and an angle finder and have fun:D .
