Hunted up the links I had for homemade plastic bending. Combined
with Grant's simple brake it would make a pretty decent setup. You can
do a reasonable job by hand without a brake for plastic, but with the
handle on the brake for leverage and a protractor on the side to go by
you can do things with a bit more ease and accuracy.
