GUITAR FRET BENDER - For single frets and full length fretwire

In addition to full length fret bending the unique feature of the tool is the ability to accurately bend single frets. This is made possible by the close pitch spacing of the bending rollers. Please see the featured Fret Bender Post for detailed information on the tool design.

FEATURES:
Close pitch precision bending rollers.
Dual groove main feed wheel for wide & narrow fret tangs. 
Separate straightening roller and guide wheel.
Robust stainless steel construction.
Detachable mounting block for orientation in bench vice.
 
FRET BENDING SETUP & USE
The fret wire tang is located into one of the feed wheel grooves - narrow or wide depending on fret wire gauge.
The handle is turned to feed the wire through the rollers. 
Pressure is applied to the bending rollers via the top thumb screw in order to achieve the required radius.
 
UNBENDING / COILED WIRE STRAIGHTENING
The wire is fed through the underside of the feed wheel and the thumb nut tightened to apply unbending pressure on the wire. The straightening wheels are fixed permanently on the tool in a position that doesn't interfere with bending. This avoids removal and replacement of rollers ensuring continuity between bending and unbending use.

Q. "What radii can it be set up for and how?"
A. As there are numerous fret wire options with respect to gauge and material composition, it is not possible to 'dial up' a previous setting - e.g. small differences in cross section of the crown and barbs will cause the radii to differ between similar gauges. Once the radius has been setup for a particular fret wire type, the tool will maintain this for consistent fret bending.
