Suggestion- show your measurements after you bend that you have 20" and show that your plumb.
Good work!

Thanks for the explanation! I'm new at conduit bending (self-learning) and frequently have made a bad bend because I was using the bender with the hook in the wrong direction. I never knew the difference between the arrow and the star. I never knew that by using the star, you can turn the bender around and you don't have to deduct any take-up. This will be very helpful in situations like your first bend in the video. I wish I knew this sooner!

I found it better to place a circle on the first Mark and at the take make a line . This keeps you from getting lost on what end to put the Bender. The circle should always end up in the slotted groove on top of the Bender

Loving the content! If you could do a video on planning out conduit racks and long runs with multiple different pipe that would be great

Question why 10 feet the box elevation is 20 inches but where’d the 10 feet come from?
