I need to bend some 22mm copper pipe into quite a wide radius curve -

get a pipe spring,

£ 1.99 then you can have any radius you like


Only as long as the length of the spring.


You could bend a long radius with a shorter spring - you'd
have to keep moving the spring along and bending just that
part of the tube - it might be a bit tedious, though.
