Customizeable Pipe Bender (for Heatpipes)

Parametric, fully 3D printable Pipe Bender I designed last Sunday to fight boredom and save 20€. Bending radius should be more than 3 times the diameter of the heatpipe and no more than 90 degrees. Three holes for up to 6mm, up to 8mm and up to 10mm heatpipe diameter. Tolerance of 0.2mm worked fine for a Replicator 5th (no sanding nor drilling required). Adjust it to your needs in the OpenScad file or with the Customizer. I’ll upload the .stl files for a radius of 30mm, you can change it to your specific value in the OpenScad file or with the Customizer.”
