Abstract
A bending tool for bending rods or like items, and including two handles and three bending posts. Two of the posts move with the handle, and the third post is a center post which is selectively rotatable to positions for determining the bend in the item. A pin interconnects the handle and the center post to hold the latter in its selected position during the bending process.
