The Apprentice Does His 1st Proper Box Offset! Electrician Dad Teaches Son Conduit Bending Tips⚡️

What happens here

Once both bends are completed, test the fit of the offset by placing the conduit into its intended destination, such as an electrical box. This allows for immediate visual inspection of the fit and provides an opportunity for minor corrections. If the offset is slightly off, small adjustments can often be made by applying gentle pressure to fine-tune the bends. The apprentice successfully fits the conduit into an electrical box, confirming a good offset.

Goal: Verify the conduit offset fits correctly and make any necessary minor adjustments.

just going to pull back a tiny bit, man. All right. How do I know when I'm good, though? I think it's good, right? >> Yeah. It was only a little bit. Okay. You got to work on it. >> Okay. Oh, yeah. That's that fits right there. >> That works. Yeah. If you make a mistake on an offset, you can always correct it, right? >> Thanks, Dad. Yep.
