The ony problem is that it can be a bit delicate: if you look at the part of the plastic that actually bends, you'll see that it is rather thin. So this valuable tool needs to be treated with respect and care. I’ve been doing archtectural drafting for decades, and this tool comes in very handy, once-in-a-while.

It's probably made of PVC and expands in sunlight. I might find this useful for bending pipe, been looking for something like this.
