You make it look easy. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
No problem, thanks!
Thanks Sparkman! Got a kick out of this lesson. You’re the best!
LOL! Good one! Thanks Joe!
@Sparky Channel. Thanks Bill for another educational video on conduit bending.
Hope you and your family stay safe and well.
Thanks, you too! Have a great weekend!
You can also calculate these using a bend angle of your choosing which is useful when you have multiple conduits and want to match all of the kicks. Downside is that you need to have marks on your conduit bender for the center of whatever bend you're using
Or you can you the “Take-Off” formula. It is (TAN(1/2 x Bend Angle)) x Radius. This formula allows you to make a center line bend based on your radius, the only mark you need to know on your benders is where the bend/arch starts. For instance, any 90° centerline bend is exactly what the radius is. So if I have a 4-1/2” Centerline Radius bender, from my centerline mark on my conduit/tube, I simply go back 4-1/2” and make my mark that starts the bend.
wrong
Thank you so much. Because of your videos i really look forward to working with metal conduit. Not so much before
You can do it! Thanks Luis!
Great closing music....thanks Bill!
Thanks Lou!
Another excellent video. Thanks Sparky.
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks!
Your awesome, I learn from you everyday.
Thanks so much Eric, you made my day!
I have an old Ideal belt like that with the leather pouch. Over 30 years old.
Excellent!
Can you show us a video how to bend electrical PVC I'm not sure if that's a proper name for the gray electrical plastic pipe I just had a pain one over a little torch I had cuz the 90s took my pipe too far away from my cut out if you can help it would be grateful😷🍻🍺
What you referring to is called non-metallic conduit-schedule 40 most likely.
@@josecuervo8487 yeah but what if you need a shorter angle of than the 90 they make how do you bend it
Nice video Sparky 👌
Thanks!
Why did you measure 12” from the back of the stub for the measured method?
To get beyond the radius of the bend
@@stevenlopez4754 is there any particular measurement for the size of conduit? Or how does he know to measure 12”?
@@izaiulloa9738 It doesn't have to be 12". That is just to give an idea of the distance for beginners. It's like Steven says, get beyond the radius of the bend.
Another great video! I have a question if it is a large kick. For example, let's say that j- box is on the end of the ledge above the one in the video. Would you have to figure what angle you need and then do a shrink calculation to adjust your mark accordingly? Thanks again for the great content!
If I'm following you right, yes, you're correct.
@@SparkyChannel That's why I enjoy your content. You show an example of what will be the finished product. Then you explain how to do it. Having said that, the example I can think of is getting below the top of the bar joist. Thank you for the prompt response.
Thanks, Bill! Another quick question: In this specific installed conduit, is there a code requirement for a conduit clamp within X inches of the box? You would think having a gap between the conduit and wall over an approx 2-foot run with bend, and only being supported by the box fitting, would be a code issue. ??
The code requirement for the EMT conduit in this video is that it needs to be secured within 3 feet of the box
one time i bend the kick too much. Good thing I can bend it back with 20oz hammer :)
LOL!
Thanks. My 90 degree bends kink a little bit. Could you let me know what I am doing wrong, please?
are you maintaining a constant foot pressure as you bend the conduit? That usually eliminates virtually all kinks in my rough ins.
@jsg7692 thanks. I'll keep this in mind
Bill I have another question, o I to know your opinion on which tool is better. I’m looking to buy a Double Flute Step drill bit or Hole Saw bit, can you tell me which one it will be the best tool to have please.
What size?

Thanks Eric!
Hello Bill, by any chance do you know what happened to the Klein laser level tools, The reason I ask is one of them my coworkers had the tool but he had a return it because song issue with the battery case. Do you know if it was recall or not that product.
Which laser level tool did he have a problem with?
Sparky Channel The one that has the red bean or red light that is long it has a base to mount the level, Laser Level with Level Bubble Vials, Magnetic Laser Level with Level Bubble Vials, Magnetic - Alternate ImageLaser Level with Level Bubble Vials, Magnetic
@@ubaldoporto7605 Yes, I know the one. I haven't heard of any recall. Perhaps his was defective.
2 Thumbs up from Nat King Code That's me!
Thanks Nat...er, I mean Willie. :)
hi sparky,
how did you get the 12 in mark?
It just an accepted distance. It doesn't have to be exactly 12".
Sparky, where did you get that nice leather belt?
That's a Klein belt which is about 30 years old now. It's very comfortable and broken in. The new one's are kind of squeaky and stiff, the old ones are nice! And to top it off, I can still use it because I'm still skinny! LOL!
Seems that 3/8" is easier to "feel" than to measure when making the kick.
Hi Kris! Yes, that's true.
Did you choose an arbitrary place to start your kick? I was reading how to do it and I got into some developed length nonsense lol. I always did it by eye too but wanted to learn the legit way on how to do it.
I do it by eye. It's so much faster that way.
👍
Thanks Jungster! 👍
Good job sir
Thanks Theo!
When are we going to see some rigid runs lol
Great videos but you should use level so that the new apprentice can learn how to do it and then they can do it by eyeing it out as they learn
Good advice, thanks!
