I never said I worked hard, just that there had been a hard day, and I was at work, which today involved no hard work, just a bit of patching in and programming extensions on a Meridian. (And I didn't chew the ends of the cables off with my teeth).

Since the OP mentions Speedfit, I think it's safe to assume he means Speedfit plastic pipe, and was just asking about how easy it is to bend the plastic pipe in that sort of space.
But even plastic pipe should be formed around an internal spring or outer form, that's unless you're making the pipe form its own natural bend which copper and pipe materials have. Plastic pipe will also kink if you try to take it past this natural limit.
Which is why you can buy special formers to bend the pipe to its correct radius and keep it there.

So tell me, what's wrong with a hacksaw and some insulation tape?
If you get the 25m reels of speedfit barrier pipe, then the usual problem is unbending the stuff!
LOL Now that's very true. :-))
Errr....I think he means Reg Prescott off the telly, the one man DIY disaster area!

acll?
My God! You have been taking Maxie lessons.
I know. Appalling stuff
Or best use copper pipe in the first place which stays bent when bent.
More likely flattened if you follow your usual procedure of not using the correct tools...
Do you mean benders flatten the pipe? My, oh, my! Keep twiddling the bass and treble knobs, and leave proper work to others.
I use a bender exclusively on copper tube. You, apparently, recommend a spring. What a fool. You really need to get some practical experience on pipework. Perhaps an evening class? Or even do some more reading.
Oh do read what has been said you little twerp.
Don't make things up.
Yep.
You know sweet FA about pipework, keeping twiddling the bass and treble knobs and admiring the shiny tools in the catalogues, not knowing hwat they do, and what! those yellow boots.
