Master Electrician Dad Teaches a Hack how to Bend 3” PVC Conduit by Hand🤯 Did you know this?

What happens here

The PVC conduit, which has a bell end on one side, is positioned on a sturdy black work stand. The dad explains that he needs to achieve a 'small bend' and carefully places the pipe to ensure the bend occurs at the desired location, avoiding the bell end. This strategic placement allows for the correct alignment for the bend while preserving the integrity of the conduit's connection point.

Goal: Set up the PVC conduit on a stable support for the bending process, considering the desired bend location.

Tools and materials
