#### Copper tubing
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7LtPurAiR1I
- sand the pipes BEFORE heating and after bending
- pipes:
- BAD: coil tubing
- GOOD:
- straight, hard, 1/2 inch diameter copper pipe
(5/8 inch outer diameter)
- type K pipe (thicker, so easier and cleaner to bend)
- tools:
- cutter
- bender: 16mm, 180 degree, large radius
