I have built five greenhouses using them and I will tell you there is nothing faster, Ive used the hyd. benders and made several bends, fact is I can complete bends on twelve pcs of 10'6" lenghts while you are making those 8 separate bends in just one. They now send a new bending video with the benders. Bottom line is I don't need to find one to borrow when ever I want to build a greenhouse, it's haning in garage.

I've got a question for you. On the 10 ft hoops, am I assuming correctly that you use two joints of top rail to form the whole arch? Also, do you have to make the hoop into a full arch like the drawing on the left, or can you leave straight sides on it like the right arch?
