I like cold beverages
So I have this IC that I got several years ago when starting out that for some reason the bends for the hose connections are bent toward the center of the circle and not away from the circle. I would like to bend them out.
I started by just slowly bending them and I have got them just about vertical, but I think the copper is hardening from the initial bending and the added stress I am applying but i'm not sure.
Would it do me any good to get a torch and heat the pipe up or just continue to slowly bend the pipe to where I want it? Is there a trade off with annealing the copper?
thanks.
