 ==Description==
-The bump bending plug-in allows
+[[File:bumpbend02.png|right|500px]]The bump bending plug-in allows bends to be sectioned off into multiple smaller, equal sized bends. When adding a series of bump bends to a bend, a die is chosen along with the bend and the number of bump bends that will be used to create the full bend. This is typically used with bends that have very large radii. This function helps break these kind of bends down into more manageable bends.
