The Best Pipe Bending Hack!

[@nixy102]

The best plumbing video of the year. Oscar and BAFTA winner.

Haha that’s bro 🤣👊

Rubbish this Guy has all the gear & no idea!! Read my post for the complete detail of the job.

[@adrianmihaita7459]

Nice tip for pipe bending, please share more tips like this one! I’m watching from Romania. 👍👍

[@mmplumber]

Glad you liked it I’m planning on doing more and maybe some vlogs

[@BriodyPlumbs]

Yeaaaa boy. Bought the monument bender a while back now. Great bit of kit instead of lumping the hilmors about. Great tip was doing as i was with the himors.

[@mmplumber]

Yeah I love the 15 set which carry’s on me at all times

[@davidoshea1536]

Great tip bud, yes could you please do more tutorial videos, especially how you use the monument benders, and like the video's you've already where you cut and piped up by eye.🌟

[@mmplumber]

We shall see how this one does and go from there 👊👊

[@Exodia1986Necross]

The fing video we all been waiting for, dude pls do more & more tutorials. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@mmplumber]

If people watch them then sure!

[@Smart_fix]

Absolutely brilliant mate you nailed it ❤️❤️❤️🙂👍🏼

[@mmplumber]

Thanks dude really appreciate it!

[@christagg7570]

This is the stuff we need to learn!

[@mmplumber]

@@christagg7570 glad you like it mate

[@Jofiplease]

i like that method i also like bending an angle, then holding the pipe up to a straight edge like a tile on the floor and measuring the offset straight off that , marking the whole circumference and then using the 45 mark on the top arm (ridgid), bending back to parallel.

[@mmplumber]

We all have our little ways but as long as you get to end result we are all Winners

[@hashimtahir9415]

Just got the monument benders and trying to practise, thank you for this - anyone know of pipe to practise with, coppers expensive and not good for reusing

[@MagicDoughnut]

Multilayer underfloor heating. It bends and you can straighten it. It's what they use in college. You can get a tool to straighten it. I went to a local UFH merchant and asked for some scrap, they gave me like a 20 meters rolls for free lol.

[@mmplumber]

Offcut of mlcp 👊

[@sdavey10]

Brilliant!! Cheers

[@darrengould4668]

Brilliant . Best video yet . Who showed you the 1-4 method ?

[@mmplumber]

I saw this on James video but wanted to show how to do it on the monument benders

[@TotalWarriorLegends]

Is this formuler a thing 1.4 methode? ​@@mmplumber

[@mattcable6379]

Wow. That was great. Thanks buddy!

[@mmplumber]

Glad you liked it!

[@mattfern8675]

Yeah mate thats class 👊

[@Whatsupp666]

Dude I'm 50 spent over 30 years in trade, never knew the 1.4 rule 👍

[@mmplumber]

🫡 try it next time bro think it only works for over 40mm sets

Oh my god where have you been all my life awesomeness

[@nicholasphillips5406]

[@mmplumber]

Glad you liked it bro

[@umark6695]

Was the 63 measurement from the middle of each pipe?

[@mmplumber]

Yeah center to center

[@se9225]

I see the question on measuring. What's the difference in degrees if you measure from top>top or bottom>bottom and is there a pattern for degree variants due to non plumb walls or angled walls.

[@mmplumber]

Non plumb walls you have to gauge by eye, center to center or inside to outside is the only way to measure distance

[@sa4540]

Don’t suppose I can get a link for the pipe benders please?

[@mmplumber]

Just google monument benders

[@dancedancerevolvingdoor]

you are amazing ty for sharing

[@mmplumber]

No worries pal 👍

[@alyssiac3827]

Thanks for the video. I think its verry usefull! How do you do it, for a rolling offset? Or for verry verry smal offsets?

[@mmplumber]

Thank you! Very small offsets I could start with a very small bend and just bend both sides more untill you reach what you need

Great video, how do you decide where to out the first mark? Is it really all that crucial? Looks like you went about 15mm from the edge of the wood?

[@mmplumber]

Normally measure from the edge but I leave extra so I can cut and move it a little

One last thing, the measurement from pipe to pipe (63mm) is it from centre to centre or edge to edge?

[@johnadams1976]

that's waht I want to know!!!! think it must be centre to centre

[@srvsocial]

Cracking tutorial buddy ❤

[@evervol1]

Can you do a video on full cross / pass over bends please!!

[@mmplumber]

Yeah will do mate

[@sa4540]

Love this vid. Did you measure from centre of the 2 pipes?

[@JayG2K]

yes i think centre to centre. but end to end would be the same measument.

[@ryanmorrison5321]

Class 👍🏻

[@mmplumber]

Thanks bro!

[@damien_tutton]

Great video. What bender is that?

[@SalvatheHandyMan]

Thank you for the video. Is that only for the 45 and 45 degrees bend ? I guess with 90 or 30 degrees bend it would be a different number to times it by?

[@mmplumber]

Exactly mate there is different numbers for the same type of formula. I’ll be make more videos to help 👊

[@SalvatheHandyMan]

​@@mmplumberthanks

[@Mobile-pd1uc]

With the 63mm are you measuring from top of the pipe to the bottom of the 2nd or just from the middle of each? Thanks

[@mmplumber]

Middle pal, center to center

[@duncanpitts6776]

Trig 1.414 for 45 deg. X2 for 30 deg 👍🏻

[@mmplumber]

Exactly that bro! ❤

[@nibortorm]

Couldn’t figure out where the 1.4 came from….And people say they don’t use high-school Maths in the “real world” 😆

Great info but have a couple of questions Is copper pipe rigid or flexible? Also what wall thickness K,L,or M What is limit of tool on different pipes?

[@mohammedhussain1980]

Please when you make first measurement where do you measure bottom of bottom pipe to the top of top pipe ... please thank you

[@mmplumber]

[@michaelgallagher7933]

Nice one, cheers, Whats the number for 22mm pipe?

[@peketee2278]

the internet is full of good apps..(for example offset pipe) you can make the bends with whatever bending angles you want, and you don't have to calculate anything. Although I myself have calculated my whole career (over 35 years), I only started using apps in the last few years, although in my case the pipe sizes were usually 10mm-2500mm, but the principle is always the same regardless of the size...

[@mmplumber]

An app for bending pipe? 😮

[@sadekhamid3165]

Is that calculation for all benders?

[@mmplumber]

It’s but you need to learn where to start the measurements from

[@jeffschultz1219]

Any problems ever with the copper cracking or splitting on the bends?

[@mmplumber]

None yet mate but the quality is getting worse!

[@jeffschultz1219]

@@mmplumber gotcha I’m a PipeFitter in the US once in a while. I’ll do tube bending. Soft copper no problem but a lot of times depending on the grade of copper it will cracker split if you don’t anneal it. But I love the content keep up the good work, my friend!

This is a really great video, thank you. What is the significance of 1.4; reason for asking is I do not know :)

[@paultutton9443]

1.4(14...) is the square root of 2. If you multiply the set distance by 1.4 for a 45 degree angle you'll get the length of the slope - Pythagoras 👍.

[@leeburnetty]

I thought you used the point at the start of the benders on the monument masters,I’ve been doing it wrong!

Hahaha maybe try again dude 🤣

[@stuartmcdonald7928]

I tape whilst in the bender then tweak the straightness over me knee cos I can’t get used to me replacement benders, then over compensate and tweak again, then kink it, then throw it, then chop the set out and crimp some 45s on whilst muttering and cursing that I knew that would happen and I need new benders.
