Thanks. Its not totally like that though I just need 2 45 degree bends pulling on a piece of pipe but need the end of these 45 degree bends to be 400mm apart. Any help?

because I'm passing over a few pipes
Trial and error.
Could cost abit in pipe
It's s learning corve, take measurements and mark your bender accordingly
Pull 2 bends with a coupler, 2 elbows and 2 streets.
This because each bender will have different points to make the bend right. Just about got it to a tee
Cut your tube to 430 mm, do your bends and trim to suit.
or, go to a proper plumbers merchants, and buy 2 x 45° solder bends (end feed, or integral solder ring). then you can cut the section between them to the millimetre as required.
Yes I am aware that this costs time to find and purchase, risks a leak if not soldered correctly and will cause greater frictional losses than a pulled bend, but if it works OK?

If you want to avoid the soldered corners just bend two separate 45s and cut to the mm and solder them on the straight bit! Less neat though. So many options depending on your requirements!
FFS how is anyone going to explain in writing of how to bend two 45 degree angle with you understanding it , REALLY
