Im sure you've read this on here before, but a lot of people use round nose pliers for bending larger wire. There was actually a how-to link a while back with a video showing the technique. Depending on what your trying to do, maybe check that out. It is a lot less expensive than the wire former. I have one that goes up to .051 and barely ever use it.
