Just bought a pipe bender as I thought I'd have ago at some DIY plumbing jobs around the house. You've just saved me a couple of pints in scrap copper. Love your presenting skills too. Thank you.

You’re probably wondering now, why!… I am just interested in engineering generally. I would’ve gone into it had I still been cited. Keep your videos coming. 😀😁👍

Thanks for the video. Very useful and entertaining. It would be interesting to see you pull a bend without a bench vice as would be done on site. Quick use full tip. I often use the floor to push against instead of my hid to pull a bend especially when pulling bends on 22mm pipe. See you in the next one

If You mark the first point of the bend en you make the bends 45 degrees than its 42 mm x 1.41 = 59.22 mm that is where You mark the second point. If you make the bends 30 degrees than its 42mm x 2 = 84 mm between point 1 en 2 for the offset

@johncoppock3823 11 ай бұрын

Great video. My pipe bends (cheapies and perhaps bent by stupidly bending some slightly wonky shelf brackets . . .) chewed the side of the pipe. Attention to the rollers Inc oil and oil on the roller face of the guide perhaps helps. Also keeping an eye on the guide being square. Put a bit of rag on the clamp to stop it creasing the pipe would be my other tip

@nickhall5959 7 ай бұрын

I give a squirt of wd40 over the pipe and formers and it does make a difference

@JackHapgood 11 ай бұрын

I’m an electrician and had to change a zip water heater, wasn’t quite like for like and had to repipe the water feed with a slight set, without a bender I filled the copper pipe with sand and managed to make a small set in the pipe for it to fit without an indentation, pretty satisfied after

@clooperman3745 11 ай бұрын

Was taught that at college, heat the tube first which makes it easier to bend with the sand inside.

It looks like these TV pubs where they show people who were told how to look clumsy while doing anything… The US method is easier when the conduit is held in a vise on a bench or spécialisée holder. Or use a better holder…

I need to do a new bit of pipework in my house which could do with a couple of bends being made. Is there a way you can bend copper without a bender? I'd like to not spend 70 odd quid on a bender for one job 😢

I had a feeling you would be great at bending. It’s obvious from the way you move your hands and stroke those those long shafts that your an experienced bender. How do you feel about keeping things straight? Ah well, that made me laugh even if you didn’t find it funny…which I hope you did 😂 Cue shameless begging: I was in an accident a few years ago which left me disabled and unable to work. It takes me ages to do any job on my house not least because I have no tools and can’t afford any. If ANYBODY has any old tools they would be willing to donate to me PLEASE get in touch - Age and condition unimportant.
