As I understand it (if I really do) after talking to John at aircooled.net,
it's the cost of the 3" pipe bender that is so prohibitive. Not many folks
own these and that's why when you get into the 3" dia. things get
exponentially more expensive. 2" a different story altogether. Fairly common
and most steel fabricators have these and can do special projects fairly
easy.
