I have often daydreamed of something like this that was portable, and affordable.

About 13 years ago at a large casino in Las Vegas they had us bending 48" radius's in all the 4"EMT Comm runs with a Greenlee 881 in the field. Without a bending table. Why they were not buying them already made is beyond me. I did allot of segment bending on that job. The only other time the opportunity arose was running a 1" control conduit on the side of a 36" wide cable tray. I had to follow the radius of the tray bends. With todays tight market I would say there is not much demand for it anymore.

About the only places I've seen large radius bends used recently is at refineries or grain elevators and you have to run aournd the outside of a tank or silo; or sometimes the specs call for fiber optic cables to be installed in large radius 90's.

It sure can be pretty though.
