    Great detail on how to align the pipe in the bender. I’ve always been hit & miss on accuracy.
  • I just want to say thank you for all the videos you make public. This has been a game changer for me. I work for a very successful company in my area who has almost no training and I don't know how they are still in business after all I have learned from you vs what they know and teach. I listen to these videos all day every day between service calls and this has greatly improved my skills, my service, and im sure every client I go to would thank you as well.
  • @FarFromPar
    This is such a great resource that I refer back to time and again.
  • @PhillpB
    Outstanding!!! just what I needed.
  • Nice video Craig! Didn't really know how to measure accurate the bend, good work!
  • @vernroach3413
    Excellent video...Much the same in bending conduit...I'm glad I found this site...Thank you.
  • @Kevin-ib4gv
    Another great video from Craig, but to simplify things on the Uniweld 1/4 / 5/16 / 3/8 combination bender, on the movable head you will see: 0, R, and L. The R and L marks are used to line up with your mark on the tubing. If your measurement is coming from the LEFT of the tube going to the right, measure and make your mark and insert the tube into the LEFT of the bender, like Craig does, Line up your 0's and adjust your tube so the mark you made lines up with the L while keeping the 0's aligned, and make your bend. The R is for bending from the RIGHT side of the bender using the same procedure.

    I was thought maybe you had deductions to use like when bending conduit. But measuring center to center works too. Thanks for the video.

    Very good video I love to have the copy of your books
