I had a wire bending machine the best that you can buy and threw it in the garbage. I wound up buying a pair of juniors pliers to make my loops and I put a nail in my vice in did them major bending so you do not need a whole lot expensive stuff to do a lot of wire bending and I have made literally thousands of spinners for salmon and steelhead fishermen besides doing spinner baits you may want to look in to buying already made up wire rigs they are very inexpensive try worth company and some your other major component parts company I haven't got a clue what wire cost any more. I was blinded by the thousand yards at a time I believe I still have enough wire to last me the rest of my lifetime because I do not do hardly any bending anymore or making spinners but the cheapest way to go would be a pair of pliers the jewelers pliers are round tips so you can wrap around make your loops and you can make your own jig real easy once you find out what your are going to make make up the jig and then it's real simple, because you'll have that already made up for that particular wireframe. Basically it's a bunch of spiked nails into plywood or something that you could mount on your bench I know it probably sounds confusing, but you get the general ideal of what I'm talking about I did it commercially also for a large company one of the Northwest largest for making salmon and and steelhead spinners I help perfect the rainbow spinner which I do not know if you know what I'm talking about, but it is the rainbow blade use highly for salmon and steelhead. We perfected the paint to go on them.
