Bro didn’t even use a level or anything. Just eyeballed a perfect 4 point. Mad respect.

[@SparkyChannel]

Thanks so much!

[@macaronitire4152]

I probably read the uglys instructions and tried to execute my first 4 point like 4 times before I finally went to KZbin and found your video. I'm pretty sure that the uglys book is wrong on how to do it, lol. Either that or they just make way to confusing. Thanks for this straightforward, concise and easy visual to help me and so many others out.

[@SparkyChannel]

Thanks!

[@SparkyChannel]

Excellent, sounds good!

[@MrStanwyck]

Hello Bill... I’m really liking this new Klein bender. Especially for people like me who aren’t experts at making bends. Have you ever used the bender boot that Ideal makes that you put on the end of the bender handle so you can keep the bender from moving by stepping on it? I’m surprised Klein hasn’t made one for theirs....

[@SparkyChannel]

Yes, I do like the bender boot when working on a finished floor because it protects the floor. I don't like it when working on concrete though. I just put my boot on the handle for safety. It's an IDEAL patent.

[@MrStanwyck]

@@SparkyChannel I didn’t realize it was Ideal’s design. That makes since why nobody else offers something similar.

[@SparkyChannel]

@@MrStanwyck Some people really like them and others don't. I'd say try one out and see if you like it. ⚡

[@theoisaac9948]

👍 💯 good tips

[@SparkyChannel]

Thanks Theo!

[@triplumberelectro8611]

Hey Bill I was wondering if you can make a video on doing back to back bends with kicks on each side? Those bends always give me a hard time.

[@Aepek]

So, after using the “angle setter”....do ya think it’s nice to have, also; you like the new head design (and markings) on the Klein benders compared to last gen? I’m also glad you got them and tested, as I kept asking you about them (hope didn’t mind, it was just curious on if saw them and what thought). Thx for the vid, always fun, educational, and interesting.....and also like that you actually “use” the tool(s) in your vids; as makes the vid even better, imo. Also, that new m12 compact fuel bandsaw, is just awesome and great for conduit work (especially res work, imo). As of now, my fav bandsaw😄 Cheers✌🏻

[@SparkyChannel]

Right on! The M12 bandsaw is also my fav for conduit work and I really do like the new Klein conduit benders!

With the push through method for this saddle, do you start on the arrow for all the marks or should we apply the same mehod as the 3-point saddle?

Hi Bill, how do I know that I need a 30 degree bend for my conduit? What if I have a bigger pipe than this? Thanks you.

[@adler88u]

Sparky. You da man, , question? Why are you using star then an arrow for outside marks on a 3 point saddle? Thanks

[@SparkyChannel]

That's push-through method for 3 pt saddles.

[@adler88u]

Thanks buddy. I've been self Employed Remodeling/Home Improvement for 21 yrs now and I am always still learning, Now with that being said, For the push through. Are you using more or less take up that you would use the star instead of traditional arrow like I'm use to. I've only used the star for back to back 90s. Thank you sir. Appreciate your detailed explanations, I'm more of a visual learner. 👁👍

Is there an explanation of the EMT piping regulations?

[@shuwalai5134]

Why the 2nd offset doesn't count the shrinkage 3/4"?

[@frankmounce166]

You add enough to your overall length to account for the shrink from the first set of bends

[@cookie19292]

Hey Bill I just bought one of these 3/4 size. I tried doing a basic 8 inch offset using the 25 degree setting and it’s over the 8 inch offset I’m looking for. It was around 9 1/2 inches. Using the multiplier. A couple of coworkers came out with the same results. Any food for thought? I didnt bend pass the guide.

Angle setter piece on the bender? Whuuuuttt? What is this new found devilry? My apprentice is such a pos i have him use the notch on all bends for a 4 point its only a little off, but good luck explaining to him the correct way... when time is of the essence and a dud of an apprentice you have, measure to obstacle, make 1st mark, measure width of obstacle,make second mark, use multiplier outwards from there both directions, leave bender with hook pointing toward direction of measurement, and start with first mark working toward last mark using the notch (center of bend) this will get you through trying times with a crap apprentice who is 2 yrs in and STILL cant bend...

[@SparkyChannel]

You have a lot of patience. :)
