Dual Size Conduit Bender

Abstract

A dual size conduit bender preferably includes a base member, an upper pole support member, a foot support member and a conduit support member. Opposing ends of the upper pole support member extend from a top of the base member. A pole boss extends upward from a top of the base member. The foot support member extends upward from one end of the base member. The conduit support member extends from an opposing end of the base member. First and second curved grooves are formed in a bottom of the base member. A pair of clearance slots are formed in an end of the foot support member. A pair of insertion slots are formed in a top of the conduit support member. A pole bore is formed through a top of the upper pole support member into the pole boss to receive a bending pole.
