I know that people rent out fender rollers that cost around $500, so I could see that idea working out.

It could be done.

How many manifold builders are there though? Hardly a large volume product, hence the price tag!

Quite a few, but you can use them for all sorts of ----, not just manifolds. Bumpers, roll cages, sliders, frames, all kinds of ---- could be made using those. I could fab up some serious off-road ---- with a set of those....and a good welder.

It's gay... It probably costs 100-200 a set to make those.. Just a couple different plastic molds that fit together and swivel.

Would have to be a local thing I am guessing. That or yeah require a huge deposit I guess. Like all the parts stores do, you essentially buy the tool and return it.
