    Been working as a plumbing and heating / gas engineer for 10 years now and that has really helped me. The way i was taught at college was really long winded. This way is so much easier. Thanks pb plumber

    If you engrave the tangent for your most used angles on your bender you would save alot of time. Also your mark is not centered on the bend... Lastly if your doing a 30 degree bend for lets say a 3" offset, just multiply by 2. So 3x2=6, mark your first bend then go 6" from there and mark again. Bend first bend, rotate tube and bend 2nd.

    As a good rule of thumb; on a 30 degree bend, the rise is twice the run...got to get across a 20mm obstacle (Rise), then the bend should start 40mm (Run) from thre obstacle - works on elec conduit.

    Really good video and similar to the way I do it but yours has a number of improvements that I think adopt myself when showing people. All the stuff they teach you in class are very good but not practical out on site. So it's refreshing to see an engineer not using a vice or a bendy ruler.

    I been watching you for ages. I been a plumber since 2005 in the United States. We don’t bend pipe here and I’m extremely jealous that we do not. Seems like a much cleaner way to navigate plumbing through a structure

    If I mark back for example on your 15mm pipe bender 70mm to edge of former for a 90deg bend , then for 45deg you would mark back 35mm , 30deg 23mm aprox without getting into decimals etc. My pipe bender is actually 65mm back from center of a 90deg in 15mm pipe so for me aprox 32.5 for a 45deg etc . Works for me

    Hi Pete. When you measure the distance from the pipe in the bender to the scrap piece you hold against the former to get your measurement, you say outside to outside. But is that gap in between the two pipes? Thanks.

    Why do you measure 35mm back so that the line is touching the former but when pulling a 90 degree bend you measure it 70mm back and don’t have it touching the former and use the pipe to line it up? Do you just use a different placement for your line if it’s a different type of bend?

    Your marks corresponding to what size you require your bends to be, will be in different places for different bends. That’s why there’s different measurements, it’s for differing types of bends.
