Nice find. They go for $20-30 new around here. And that is without
the handle. Handles are sold separately. Had to buy mine new (1/2 and
3/4 in). Just scrounged up the appropriate sized pipes for handles.

What you got is what we just called a bender in this area. A Hickey is a
slightly different animal. Nice little pdf file I found he

Definately a bender not a hickey.

I had a bender for 3/4 inch conduit, but have not seen it since moving to the East Coast. It was a genuine Sears model.

I try to make a pass thru the scrap yard at least once a week. Usually I find nothing, but sometimes I find something interesting.
