So that conduit with the 1-1/2" myers hub is just jammed into the 1-1/2" flex connector? No mechanical connection of the conduit to the box? WOW!

That looked like 2" to me. Those were 1/2 fitting, right?

My first pipe job! What do you think?

 

[Almost Retired]

have you pulled any wire in it yet ?

and yes it belongs in this thread lol
you must not own a hacksaw
you should have avoided 2 of the bends on the next to last pic

if these pics are one single run of pipe ? i have counted approx. 720* in the pics alone

making accurate bends is not all there is to running pipe
picking a path that gives you the best route matters
planning your bends so that you use the least possible number of degrees in the run matters

did you know that 360 degrees is the maximum allowed by code and by physics?
did you know that experienced electricians try not to go over 270 degrees ?

It's actually 4". There is no protection whatsoever on the wires at that point either. That goes straight from the generator to a disconnect. It is a Myers hub without the lock utility, stuck in the hub part of a sealtite connector. There is also a piece of 4/0 or so mine cable that leaves the generator head with protection, and runs at least 100' across the building to feed a fused disconnect. That is a 670 KW generator.

Do you always follow ALL the rules?

Is it central vac pipe?

Ok here's my second try. No bends on this one:

Not sure where this belongs.

 

[CMP]

It belongs right where you found it.

Throw enough mud at it, eventually it sticks lol
Dont see a welding helmet (might be wearing goggles) so he's welding with his eyes closed

Looks like he is making a rack for a Ford 150 so all the trunk slammers can carry their ladders (that they steal from the job sites).

Dayum he must be making bank!

Well, this is a first. HO ran MC in conduit out to a pool house, then roughed the branch circuits in enclosed walls with UF. He wants me to T&M the job.
