1/2" EMT bender




need it for maybe 3 bends, Boss wants a light switch moved, has no problem with the $50 in materials but won't spring for the $20 tool I'll "only use once." Forget that we install dish machines and other institutional items that are often powered by conduited electricity.




Does anyone local to Seattle have one that I can use for a day? I can trade you some future AR troubleshooting.

I've got one but I think it's 3/4 inch rigid??

Location is probably a deal breaker.

You can use a 3/4" ridgid for 1" EMT but it won't work for 1/2 inch. Nice try though.

I assume that if I find who you loaned it to I might find it too?

 



I'll be down your way this weekend. I'll knock on some doors. There can't be that many houses in Louise County with electricity.

I have 12 of them but I'm on the dry side.

Thats what I did....
I figured the measurements and added a foot, knowing I could trim each end for a great fit. I got home, and was able to turn in upsidedown and trim nothing! it just lowered where it turned to flex.
