I've found it to be a very handy little tool at an excellent price. Based on my experience here are a few suggestions: 1. Other reviews mention adding a brass washer under the handle rotation point to remove the "slop" in the handle. This is very good advice. Without the washer your bends will tend to have a twist. This is an easy to fix. Get a 1" diameter brass washer with a 0.5" hole and sand the thickness down in increments until it fits snugly under the handle. My bender needed a washer about 1mm thick to take up the handle play. 2. Be sure to only seat the small diameter shafts (5 and 6mm) flush with the top of the die holder. The shafts will extend down further, but you want to only apply bending pressure against the base of the thin shaft, if you go higher you'll risk bending the shaft. 3. Don't forget to tighten the shaft into place using a 4mm Allen wrench. 4. Go on youtube and search for "mini bender" and watch the videos prior to use. This will help. 5. Clamp the bottom of the bender in your bench vice when using it. You want a solid mount. Overall I'm quite pleased with this little bender, especially for the price. I would also like to add that I had an issue and contacted WINMAX through desertcart and received a prompt response back and they solved my problem. Excellent customer support! I would heartily recommend this tool and would buy it again. Review: Versatile tool - Low quality tool to match the super low price. Various size blocks are useful. Versatile tool.

Versatile tool. Ised it on a couple projects and I think it will be great for someone like me that only needs it occasionally. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works, but metal posts not hard enough to resist bending. *by M***R on April 21, 2024* The first time I used it, I wanted to bend 3mm piano wire round the smallest of the posts provided. I was able to bend the wire with no problem, but I also bent the post. The ease with which I could bend the post back into shape demonstrated that it was pretty soft steel. In the photo I already bent it back almost straight. The posts should be REALLY hard to resist bending. Something like gun metal, I suppose. This post (see photo) is going to be least resistant to bending, being the thinnest one in the set, and it did bend. Setting it up is a little tricky. Obviously, you want the wire you are bending to be as low on the post as possible, so the post has the least leverage to get bent. There's a screw (for which you need a 4mm Allen key, not provided), which allows you to adjust the height of the post. You can see it in the photo on the side of the unit, below the post. This is not mentioned in the instructions. You need to adjust the height so that the vice (right in the picture) clears the base of the post, but only just. The instructions are typical chinese-written instructions where, having figured it all out, you can then tell what they meant when they wrote the instructions. All in all it works well. Just be careful to set it up to minimize the bending force on the posts. ## Frequently Bought Together - WINMAX TOOLS AUTOMOTIVE Manual Mounting Mini Universal Bending Bender Forms Wire, Flat Metal and Tubing - The Beadsmith Wire Looping Pliers – Create 6 Sizes (Ranging 2-9mm) of Loops & Jump Rings, 5.5" long (140mm), Polished Steel Head & PVC Comfort Handle - Wire Bending Jig Tool Wire Bender Forming Wrapping Fixture Jewelry Making with pins --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/307782608-manual-mounting-mini-universal-bending-bender-forms-wire-flat-metal](https://www.desertcart.be/products/307782608-manual-mounting-mini-universal-bending-bender-forms-wire-flat-metal) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-01*
