There is disclosed point-of-use apparatus that is actuated by a pair of socket wrench handles. This device allows one man working in a confined area, such as a cabinet or junction box, to bend tubing, pipe or cable; pull cable or rope or cut soft cable or rope on a job location without the assistance of a co-worker and providing a high degree of accuracy. This device provides apparatus for bending pipe or cable or may be used for pulling cable. This apparatus includes end plates that are spaced a determined distance from each other by means of connecting rods. The rods may also carry bushings for bending cable, pipe, tubing or thin walled conduit to a specific diameter. The second apparatus is designed to cut soft cable, tubing, rope and the like and is also actuated by the same or a like socket wrench handle.
