Fair enough ill buy you some sun glasses ;-)

Use a flexi next time and don't bother with the bend. See what your tutor says.

Tell him/her your practicing for the real world and need to save time!!

What's flexi?

 

[Kyle87]

What's flexi?

Think of it as a friend in a time of need but if you use this friend too often then you just look bad!!

 

[Barry98]

Posh college with local fittings

 

[village idiot]

What's flexi?

[Hannah]

Yorkie fittings in college?!

I know, we get read the riot act though. If they break them they'll be trouble... :wink5::wink5:

 

[Alex Knight]

The college supply cupboard comes in very handy for private jobs....

Not that I'd ever steal from the college of course

 

[oz-plumber]

I've measured the bends.

1 bend is 39.5 and the other is 44.5
Total = 84.0

2 degree tolerance not met = fail - do again.

Memories from my school days.

Am I showing my age ?
Or is a 6 degree tolerance allowable these days.????

 

[helpsy]

+/- 1 degree or +/- 1mm if I recall correctly.

 

[oz-plumber]

Helpsy,

I thought my schooling was difficult - we had a 2 degree tolerance or 2mm tolerance.
...and I thought I had it bad... but if you had a 1 degree / 1mm tolerance ... i'll tip my hat to you!!

On our gas course we only had one day on bending and soldering.
We had 1 degree/1mm on our lever 3 gas if you had plumbing nvq 2 or 3
if you didn't then you had 3!

i didn't and getting it within 1 degree wasn't that bad.

[diamondgas]

I remember having to put a socket just where that one is. Did you get the bend the wrong way around? :lol:
