I was looking at a building under construction and they are puting on the gray PVC electrical conduit. They made some bends around obstacles that I did not think were possible. I've bent EMT metal conduit with a pipe bender around obstacles, but with that PVC I thought a person was stuck with glue on elbows and such. How do the pros bend this stuff and make it look so good? I'm guessing they use some sort of heat, but I cant see how it would bend without kinking or ballooning. Seems like it would be much more trouble and time consuming than just using EMT and a pipe bender.
