EK-Loop Soft Tube Cutter is a small handy tool specifically made for soft tube cutting. It is compatible with various flexible soft tubing types such as PVC, EPDM, Norprene, silicone, etc. The maximum size compatibility of the cutter is 16 mm (5/8") OD. The EK-Loop Soft Tube Cutter is made in China and is available for purchase for €4.90.
 
The Modulus is the EK approach to an easy and straight forward way of bending hardline acrylic and PETG tubing. The tools act as a mold which helps the user to form the tubing in the desired shape. EK-Loop Modulus tools come in 3 variants depending on the outer diameter (OD) of the tubing. Available models are for tube size of 12 mm, 14 mm, and 16 mm. The EK-Loop Modulus Hard Tube Bending Tool is made in Slovenia and is available for €24.90 in all three diameters.
 
I think EK has made some fine tools here with prices that aren't too high.

    nice bending jig
     
    cutter is a knockoff of the existing industrial cutter used for "plastic hose" for decades -- So, though it looks adapted to soft tube with wider support around the tube  (wider jaws) .. its not really a new design ... even looks to use the same blade
     
    standard industrial cutter

    The cutter is okay, but may not be worth the premium. I do like the bender form. Simple and looks easy to use.
