Trying to build a stand to hold a radion over my 60 cube. Figured half inch rigit conduit should work but hate to buy a $45 pipe bender for 2 bends. Anyone relatively close to the Katy are have one I can borrow or rent?
thanks

Dude, just do the bends at the hardware store. They won't care. You only need two 90's, right?

I do that all the time and those guys at Lowes and HD "don't givea' @#$%!" :D

+1 on this, in fact when i did mines i had an associate do it for me, most won't, but this guy went right to the bender and bent my pipes for me and placed it back on the shelf.

I didn't buy my pipe there, but I have bought other things there so maybe they just let it slide.

Nah............. it's just you Allison. You kinda have a sort of Karma around you that ppl can't refuse you anything. :peace:

I was thinking of using 1/2 inch rigid over 3./4 emt for a single radion. Should that be enough? I am going to have two bends in it. One that bends it over the tank and then a second that will run from the left to right side like the one pictured here.
