Sure, but the purpose of the tool is to allow children to bend it in the right shape.

@Libed24 Hope I'm not telling you something you already know. If you head the tube to red hot with a blow torch and quench it in water it anneals it and it becomes much easier to bend. And you can get more accurate bends, too.

I used automobile brake tube, and without annealing it was very, very difficult to work it.

Nice video  Bill

That looks like hard work! Did you anneal the copper first?
