Certainly! Here is a step-by-step tutorial on how to bend copper pipe:
1. Straighten out the copper pipe or tubing.
2. Tape off the bottom of the copper pipe with duct tape or electrical tape.
3. Fill the copper pipe with sand or salt, using a funnel.
4. Tape up the other end of the pipe.
5. Bend the pipe to the desired curve.
6. Remove the tape and let the sand or salt flow out.
Alternatively, you can use a pipe spring to bend your copper tubing into your desired shape little by little, then remove the spring.
You can also use a pipe bender; open up the handles and disengage the tube latch before marking where you want to bend the copper tube. Press down on the grooved thumb section of the latch until it comes to a stop in the down position. Mark the copper tubing where you want to bend it and then insert an appropriately-sized pipe spring into the copper tubing and bend it into your desired shape little by little, then remove the spring.
If you are using a manual bender, begin by positioning your bender head around the marked area of the pipe and then push down evenly until you have reached the desired angle. For manual benders, use a hammer or rubber mallet to apply pressure while bending – just make sure not to over-tighten, as this could cause damage or even breakage of your copper piping!
