I became an apprentice many years ago to help out a friend who was a journeyman. Let's just say, he lost his license to drive and I needed a better job. First bending I learned was box offset and he was a dude that had being doing it for decades and hardly measured and it came out right. He taught to get a feel for the pressure so I knew when I was about the right degree and to imagine certain lengths. Like you I practiced on scrap. In no time I was bending offsets with no measurement or really checking the angle, but the were good bends. Wish I had the opportunity to learn more complicated bends from him as he was just instinctive on his bends and life happened.
Just starting to learn to bend , I like the fact that you teach it in a way that anyone with a different skill level can understand. Keep up the good work!
Your bending are very useful and helpful to me. I am an hvac installer here in Southern California. I install my own electrical circuits and sometimes I have to use conduit and make bends with a bender and I'm not the best at it for sure. This will help me improve. Thanks. Chuck
I like your energy and philosophy of teaching. Keep it simple stupid, don’t give me your big words. I’ve always felt that people who can’t say something in simple terms either doesn’t know it or doesn’t want you to know it. Great tips. I’ll be practicing this week in my garage with scraps or maybe I’ll go buy some sticks.
I just started learning how to install access control and this will help me move ahead more quickly. Thank you for sharing this information! Excuse me now while I go hit that subscribe button.
I work in property management and have an opportunity to run conduit for our parking deck. I am using your videos to learn! It’s going well so far loving the instructional videos.
I’m an LEA and have never really had to bend pipe too often. Now it sounds like I’m going to need to learn so I appreciate your videos for they’re super easy to follow. I’m going to study the Cosan chart.
@@MountaineerOutdoors it’s a Limited energy “A” license. Also there’s LEB which the B license isn’t allowed to install pipe or work with Fire Alarm systems or Nurse Call systems. It’s all low voltage. Data, security, fire, nurse call, cameras etc.
Gotcha not sure where your from but in Virginia you don't need that kinda license.. That's why I asked you what it meant. I hold a journey man card and where I work that's all they require along with 4 year apprentice program.
@@MountaineerOutdoors right on. Oregon requires you to at least hold an LEB to pull cat cable. But yea a Journeyman electrician can do it all! I did 6000 hours and 3 years of school to get my LEA. LEB only takes 2 years.
I’m just learning to bend conduit on roofs for solar, if you could post a video of an Offset(LB) to a 90 to another offset (Junction box) that would be very helpful! Videos are very helpful by the way. Thank you for posting them!
New bender, in a diy shed wiring project here. Thank you! I don’t need to become a pro but this will help me be instantly competent, without a tape measure, sharpie and trigonometry.😇
Wow this is amazing. Thank you so much. I got me a first job to do next week and I can't wait, but it already involves conduit bending, because it is a failed inspection job, and I got to redo the wiring in conduit. 😃
@@MountaineerOutdoors thanks to your videos and the Sparky Channel things turned out very well. I really enjoyed using my Klein bender and happy to report my shop has several new outlets, an electric heater. Next, I will add a security camera and light to the outside of the shop. Thanks again for sharing your experience. God Bless. Gerry
At 4:02, "$1000 words" are what English linguists like to call "sesquipedalian" -- from the Latin (sesqui -- 1-1/2 + ped -- foot) meaning "foot-and-a-half long words." Any word which is a foot-and-a-half is pretty long in anybody's book. Use "sesquipedalian" to impress and amaze your friends and neighbors next time someone uses unnecessarily big words to convey a simple thought when a little word would do. Say "ses+qui pe+DAY+lee+an" 3 times and the word is yours forever.
Thanks for the video,I would appreciate it if you could show a clear close up of the bottom of the pipe and how it must line up with the angle line on the Bender
How can I secure metallic conduit to a floor to put an outlet box on to it. So its loose 12/2 BX cable pulled through floor into metal conduit and through a connected metal 1 gang electrical box for an outlet . Also what size metal conduit for 12/2 BX cable? will 1/2 inch conduit be ok?
@@MountaineerOutdoors I found a video that shows it to be 1/16"/inch. Indeed, that is not much when bending box offsets. Your video helped me show how to do the box offset to students that have access to a "Little Kicker" bender one of those companies makes. So naturally they take the easy way, thinking every employer will spring for those at around $350 apiece I assume. Thanks again!
New to your channel 🙋🏻♂️ excuse my writing I’ll don’t do this kind of job. but is good to know a little bit of everything for my humble opinion is very interesting the way you explain and you deserve a hundreds of views God bless you 😎👍👍
The sine of the angle gives you the vertical offset for each inch (or any unit) of length of the hypotenuse. In this case, sin(10 degrees) is roughly 1/6; so you just multiply your offset by 6 and make 2 marks that far apart. Electricians use 30 degrees a lot because sin(30 degrees) = 0.5 so you can just use a multiplier of 2.
Nice video man! I will definitely want to try that finger method. I seem to have not as much trouble trying to other bends like 90’s and some offsets, but box offsets kill me. I think it’s me not leaving enough space between the hump I made in the first bend. Anyhow, I’ll give your finger trick a shot! Thanks so much! I subbed!
@@MountaineerOutdoors finger trick works! And, the 3 inch starting measurement is a great place to start the offset! Thanks again! I’m looking forward to more of your videos!
That's awesome so glad to hear that this helped you. Starting in January there will be electrical videos every week for a few months. Looking forward to seeing you there. Have a happy Thanksgiving and happy holidays
Yep just remember that when you are a journeyman try to teach and not be too hard on your apprentice. He's there to learn. Thanks for watching and commenting ☺
When doing a box offset and making another bend say a 90° with it, how do you figure out how to bend it..and for it to come out the right direction that you want it to go.
can you help with this one -- I build commercial boilers and they are just a huge drum - 8ft+ diameters, we have to bend to the same radius of the boiler as well as laying boxes 3/8 offsets and managing to keep them conformed to the radius so they screw down flat. Some times they are 1-1/2" high box offsets - all prefab code boxes- but sometimes we have to drill out holes in other control boxes that may require a 4in high offset into a long 90 elbow -- This isn't too hard because we can bend by anchoring the 10ft conduit on a lifting lug welded to the top of the boiler-- we can use this to bend the full piece almost completely around it -- The problem we have is when we have to say go up 6 ft following the radius- then break to the left for 3 feet running across the boiler then having to kick back up 90 deg and then take remaining last ft to a 3/8 offset --- that makes it hard for us because we cant use the hard shell of the boiler and that lifting lug to bend the whole 10ft -- its awkward to use the hand bender to try and make all them changes etc... any advice - maybe you can experiment for me please --
Waiting on your chart....well maybe not the chart but the video on how to use it. I'm going across corrugated steel and need to get to about 1 3/8" then... you vids are great MAGA
@@MountaineerOutdoors Yes, I appreciate the offer.... The offset I want it 1.125 (1 1/8") Do I still use the 10 degree? Would the mark be at 6.75 (plus the 3" from the end) making it 9.75 form the very end?
i am rewiring the warehouse aqnd i;ve bought the junction boxes , and when they came, i;ve found the ko's are staggered. i have to maqke the offsetsto keep the main emt length horizontal. p amsure there's a lifehhack for this situation. would you care to talk abot that? thanks.
How do you make measurements based off of the ceiling. I work on a project at a university and never know how to measure things in respective of the junction box so my conduit runs straight in.
So yes I do use the 30 degree in my bending when doing an offset. However this is a box offset so I used a 10 degree offset and for that the multiplier is 6. Does that make sense?
Honestly not sure each bender is different so you would have to play around with it to see how close you can get. Use the finger method and you can't go wrong
I'm gonna answer your questions honestly... I don't know however I think it should. I've been Bending so long without putting the marks that I'm not totally sure. That's something I will have to try myself. Now you have me thinking 🤫
So honestly I have not marked a piece of pipe for a box offset in years. For the 3/4 I use my finger technique so I can always have a reference. It doesn't take much for a box offset. Just make sure you keep your bends in check and roll they pipe 180° I know that isn't the answer you are looking for but I will try to work on it to get the math right.
Please do a video of 2x box offsets (Height 3/8 or .375") with a "back to back" ( 2x 90*) at a distance of 72", and a height of 12". Thank you in advance.
I needed that last part with the finger. I don't wanna do math for 5 min. I dont wanna mark the pipe. Just wanna know how much to bend it. That last finger-method could be a 30second standalone video. Thank you
Any chance you would give private lessons maybe a one on one I’ll pay you? I really need help I’m getting a new job and it’s more commercial I’m good in residential
@@MountaineerOutdoors I’m joining the union and they require knowing bending pipe. All my 5 years of being an electrician I’ve been a residential guy now I need to know how to do comercial. How can I contact u Sir?

Is it possible for you to demonstrate a compound 90 degree bend.
Yes that's a great idea. I'll be starting back up the electrical videos very soon
How do you make measurements based off of the ceiling. I work on a project at a university and never know how to measure things in respective of the junction box so my conduit runs straight in.
I am assuming you mean from ceiling to wall? Same exact way as from the floor. Or are you meaning running the conduit straight line?
Nice work, but I thought the multipler for 1/2 emt was 2?
Do you mean on a 30 degree bend? Yes it is
@@MountaineerOutdoors Sorry-yes 30 degrees. He is using 6 in the video. Why? Thank you !
So yes I do use the 30 degree in my bending when doing an offset. However this is a box offset so I used a 10 degree offset and for that the multiplier is 6. Does that make sense?
@@MountaineerOutdoors sure does. Thank you sir. God bless.
Same to you.
what is the minimim distance between bends that will fit in a 1/2 in and 3/4 bender without messing up the first bend while bending the second bend?
Honestly not sure each bender is different so you would have to play around with it to see how close you can get. Use the finger method and you can't go wrong
Could you do parallel offsets and 90
Great ideas

Do those same measure ments work. On 3/4
I'm gonna answer your questions honestly... I don't know however I think it should. I've been Bending so long without putting the marks that I'm not totally sure. That's something I will have to try myself. Now you have me thinking 🤫
Is that 3/8” to the centre of the hole?
When should you do a 45 bend just asking
Only when you are in a tight space. They are hard to pull through especially when your conduits are packed full.
Hi , I like your video. Thanks
Thanks
How would you do it on 3/4 pipe? Ive tried it with 10 degree and the math puts the 2 marks to close and it doesn't really work out.
So honestly I have not marked a piece of pipe for a box offset in years. For the 3/4 I use my finger technique so I can always have a reference. It doesn't take much for a box offset. Just make sure you keep your bends in check and roll they pipe 180° I know that isn't the answer you are looking for but I will try to work on it to get the math right.

For math nerds, those multipliers are found under the "cosecant" table. Find your bend angle on the chart, then look under the cosecant tab.
And it’s pronounced co-seek-ant!
Hey do the detailed video on all bends plz
Working on them ☺
will this work for 1”?
Kinda might add more room for the bends since the shoe is bigger
Any chance you would give private lessons maybe a one on one I’ll pay you? I really need help I’m getting a new job and it’s more commercial I’m good in residential
Absolutely what kinda lessons are you needing
