This is an EXCELLENT instructor. Covers all the details, logically and in order, and anticipates and has a solution for each problem that might arise. Very impressive!

Great instructor. He’s involving the students and asking what they think. He’s engaging them in his process. Great job.

What a great demonstration. I've done loads of diy plumbing over the years but never realised that there was a measuring science to getting bends precise. Always used a spring and solder joints to get the job done. I have to reconfigure my central heating pipework ready for a new boiler, so today I am buying a set of benders and I am going to do it properly. Thank you.

Superb demo and video Paul. I'm just an amateur plumber. Great for the lads that they can watch your video again before and after the class, not to miss anything. I always think with education you need three goes. 1st stage get over the bewilderment, 2nd stage learning, and 3rd stage reinforcement, memory, and questions. Hope to see all those lads smile when they've got good jobs.

Excellent instructor. Hope those young men understand this is not the norm

Seriously, what a great teacher, wish my college teachers were as good.

Thanks again I have just done a critical bend on chrome 15mm and it has gone perfectly following your instructions. My first bend in over 15 years. I am an amateur with a bar bending machine

Excellent video, thank you, I've just bent two 90s to the exact centre I needed thanks to this information.

What an excellent tutor you are Sir! I need to learn these skills to make a magnetic loop antenna.

Very well explained, a good instructor will have good students sent into the work place.

Excellent Class Paul, Thank you for sharing

I have been placed on an experienced plumber course for C&G level 2, so i have no tuition to help me on my level 2. Your videos, and they way you explain things are such a help. being pushed to sit my exams and do my assessments in the next 3 weeks is daunting to say the least, so thank you for putting your videos out there.

Many thanks your showing very clear and very simple

Good information for practical work

Huge thanks Paul for your encouragement. I did my level 2 City and Guilds, OK, only part of it at Conel, it's a long story, and and am now working as a Plumbers Mate towards my NVQ to become fully qualified. It's been a strange journey, but a great one!

Really good to me. Thank you

Great video!

You are amazing teachear and polite. Stundents will lear a lot from you. When i did my plumbing course the teachear was rude and bulling many student left because of him, i was going to leave also but i stood up for my self and i did not tolerate his behavour. A year later that teacher got firet from two different school where he was teaching plumbing. The course centre is London, Barking Millinium Academy. Greeting from Albania. 🇦🇱👍🇽🇰

A far easier method of C/C 90 degree bends is to Lay your pipe flat. Put a level/timber piece along the short end Measure your 300mm and mark it Put pipe in bender, using a set square align the mark on the pipe with the inside of the bending machine guide Now pull your 90 Also guys, pull EVERYTHING, that’s how you get good. I was installing a pressure reducing set up on a mains fed cylinder. I could have easily used 2 elbows to join pipe tees that were running horizontally, but instead I came out of the first pipe, turned 90 and ran towards the nearest wall a metre away. I then bent the pipe down just so I could get a bracket on it. After the bracket I pulled another 90 ( which was horizontally level with the bottom pipe) back away from the wall back towards the cylinder. Lastly another 90 to get the pipe into the bottom pipe tee piece. All perfect using this method, quick to do, no leaks on a pulled bend, less resistance on a pulled bend, much better looking than a fittings.

Hello, nice work

Thank you 👍

Good job prof,

I really like these teacher but may teacher is also good so good jobs

Looks my old classroom Tottenham & Harringey

2012 good old days

Hi, does anyone know how to bend flat copper pipes? I understand I'd have to stuff the flat copper pipes with, like, fine sand so that kinks won't form when bending. But is there a specific tool to bend flat copper pipes with?

A v good video but needs close up shots at different times, so we can see the alignment of the marking up in the bender Many thanks

The sound is very low.

Instructor knows how to instil discipline with his trainees I’m sure they’ll be all successful

What the Hell … 😅😅😅😅 . I’m studying in this workshop at the moment . it’s ( Enfield & North West London ) college . I fixed a leaking pipe behind the instructor ( if you notice ) last week . 😇😇😇.

Paul, there’s no vices or square on-Site. You use a Door Frame for a square. Pulling a 90 on a 22mm tube, Mark your centre & Mark back your tail 100mm(b), the Mark b goes at the edge of your former & you’ll get an accurate bend. The second bend can be done the same way it’s called ‘Mark back’. Last wee point, any vent/expansion pipe must rise a given amount before returning into the storage cistern. It’ll pull air if it too short & Vent over too.

Hi I've just subscribed

What brand is the bender? Thanks

Smart man

Great help I was watching your radiator video but can’t see it no more?

Very good video,I have often wondered if it is possible to bend copper pipe instead of soldering copper elbows to make a ninety degree bend on copper pipe.Thank you and God bless you and your family.

i would like to ask if the copper pipe is heated befor or what ???

Would it help if the pipe was warmed up slightly before bending ?

Hi Paul, where are you teaching at the moment.

Great video. Purchased the bender shown but get cracks on both L and M copper pipe. What am I doing wrong?

Get it right the first time.

It’s great teaching, I’m going to start plumbing curses, where is the college please?

I thought we were going to get rid of this water tanks in the loft

hi Google billps pipe bending i think it might help ya students on some bends using a measure back method thanks

It may be good if i could hear it, perhaps it's old age creeping up.

anyone else here trying to gain intel for class? xD

Je verrai bien être participé à ça. 😢

Why on earth teach people to bend the long part of the copper. And on a desk. My god. They will learn on site it’s so easy. And if they can’t bend 22mm pipe bestchange there job
