    Thanks for calling out the toxic crap that seems to occur in the trades. We NEED people in trades and a lot of people just dont want to be around the toxic and bully type attitudes out there. Like you said, we all need each other

      These days toxicity exits all around us from each direction. Offices, grocery stores and convenience stores are not immune. Driving on a busy street or highway is a harrowing experience as well. Civility is becoming rare. The only difference I can see on a construction site is there usually isn't an HR office easily accessible.

    This title needs to be changed, he never actually demonstrated how to use it, he just kind of glossed over it.

    Dude, you helped me so much. I ran all my conduit and it was my first time. Then i ran my buddies fish tape through it and got snagged at every turn. Watched your video, heated the tip, bent the tip, lubed the tape and wire bundle like a virgin on prom night with soap and pulled the wires like I knew what I was doing….youdaman.

    You've gotten it backwards with heating the metal. Bending it is essentially work hardening the metal - the torch is annealing it and making it softer so when you go to bend it you don't excessively harden it. Still; good suggestion to heat the metal before bending.

      What are u talking abt?

      The metal of the tape is clearly already hardened. He uses the torch to Anneal it so that the pre-existing hardening does not encourage the tape to break on the first bend.
      The metal is not going to be work hardened after one effing bend and nothing about what he explained is backwards.
      1. Tape is hard and breaks easily; 2. tape is heated and annealed;
      3. Tape is now malleable and won’t break easily.

      Work hardening takes A LOT of work to actually start being a problem. Like hammering cold metal on an anvil for 5+ minutes. One single bend of a piece of wire will do basically nothing to affect the work hardening. If it’s brittle on the first bend, it was already hardened.
      Again, what is backwards about what he said?
      The only thing worse than an “uhm acktually…” guy (me), is one who doesn’t even know wtf they’re talking abt.

    The video title drew me, the content kept me, and the olympic bars impressed me.

    Can you make a video on choosing which conduit bend is best to use on certain situations? Thanks :-)

      Just remember the “path of least resistance.” Complex bends might be fun, but hardly are they the “only” route.

    All that whinging and your tip is misleading. The heat and slow cooling anneals the metal. Gonna want to temper it again or you pull the end-loop straight.
