    I posted that on here about a year ago

    a protools bender is 500-700. I'll pay the 200 bucks for someone to fab it for me.

    ...and another $100 or so to hydro it, or another couple hundred to have someone else fab that for you

    besides, I wasn't interested in benders about a year ago

    The point is that it would probably be just as easy to build or modify one of these for a hydraulic ram as it would be to convert a JD2 to hydraulic, and would cost hundreds less...you just buy the dies
