I thought there were some good bits in this. I've used the JD unit before and while super well built and great to use, it is also $$$.

For some reason the embed feature isn't working for me.

That's definitely interesting, I have thought about getting one in the past but didn't know options that inexpensive were available now.

I built this one from plans: https://www.gottrikes.com/Tube_Bender.htm

Uses Pro-tools/ Tricktools dies.

Back in 2017, I used the Gottrikes plans and built mine for ~$525 with the die, according to my exhaustive record keeping.
