1/2" EMT bender




need it for maybe 3 bends, Boss wants a light switch moved, has no problem with the $50 in materials but won't spring for the $20 tool I'll "only use once." Forget that we install dish machines and other institutional items that are often powered by conduited electricity.




Does anyone local to Seattle have one that I can use for a day? I can trade you some future AR troubleshooting.

I've got one but I think it's 3/4 inch rigid??

Location is probably a deal breaker.

You can use a 3/4" ridgid for 1" EMT but it won't work for 1/2 inch. Nice try though.

I assume that if I find who you loaned it to I might find it too?

 



I'll be down your way this weekend. I'll knock on some doors. There can't be that many houses in Louise County with electricity.

Use one at Home Depot before you buy the conduit.

I have 12 of them but I'm on the dry side.

Thats what I did....
I figured the measurements and added a foot, knowing I could trim each end for a great fit. I got home, and was able to turn in upsidedown and trim nothing! it just lowered where it turned to flex.
