Yesterday. I made this one, had to put a 2-3/4" offset into it for a shepherd's hook effect because it runs back along under an old house soffit with 2/4" truss.
To get the bend to go thru roof without having to cut an oblong hole (3-5") I put in the shepherd's hook offset. I left the job without taking a picture of the thing installed but have to go back there today so hold your breath. It went in perfect.

Pardon my cracked garage floor. Last cement truck out of 9 decided to run about an hour late and viola... Gorilla glue repair job.. That thing follows the exact screed line...

That's the best looking bend in a stick of rigid pipe that I've ever seen. You union guys get excellent training.

It's pipe so it's real electrical work.

It won't be too short, will it?

Ha ha, it actually is about a half inch..... But..... there is maybe three sets of shingle piled up on each other over the years so I can always peel the roof down a bit more if they push it......:laughing:

 

[macmikeman]

Partially installed. No wire in it yet.

Land for housing that sparse? Wait they didn't want to leave the house

I'm not ashamed to say that I got a semi-erection.

This customer has cut his house to pieces in order to have rental units. He lives like a troll, and the thing up over the roof is going to be another unauthorized (but it has a permit...) rental unit. And Yea, in that part of town where this is, it is all old houses with small yards and no room. Diamond Head blocks the ocean view.

Interesting mast there Mac

depending on the OH's trajectory, i would imagine it not needing a guy wire at all, having the stability of the rafters you've made it too

[SteveBayshore]

Looks like a perfect fit. Do you drill the hole then bend the conduit to fit into the hole, or do you bend the conduit and drill the hole to match the conduit?

 

[Elephante]

Hey Mac would it have worked without the offset?

 

[SparkyDino]

Hey Mac would it have worked without the offset?

my first thought was an LB or LR.

but that is such a nice bend, so groovy & what not.

I like it.

[HackWork]

A small part of me misses smartbending rigid. A very small part. The part that they are cutting out next week.
