What you got is what we just called a bender in this area. A Hickey is a
slightly different animal. Nice little pdf file I found he

https://www.quia.com/files/quia/user...onduit_Bending

It has a drawing on the first page of a regular EMT bender and a
Hickey. Brief description of usage. A lot of nice bending tips,
measurements too if you're new to this


Interesting. What the PDF calls a "bender" the electrician in
the lab where I used to work called a "hickey", so that is the term that
I have used. (And boy did he make it look easy. :-)

And that means that what I said I saw at Home Depot was what the
PDF file called a "bender", not a "hickey".

Enjoy,
DoN.
