bending 15mm copper

hi guys
just a quick one. Can I make a horizontal 90 bend and a vertical 90 bend right up to each other or will I need to leave a gap between ?

cheers guys

Depends on the maid of bending.

What are you using to bend the pipe?

 

[jc69817]

Bending with a pipe bender not a spring. Could have picked an easier bend for my first time. Ha ha

If you have space, can be done quite neatly. If space tight, bend and fit elbow. Also consider two 45 degree bends.

Its to the taps on a kitchen sink. So coming into the void behind from one side. In from the back and up for the tap so there is not much room but ill see.
Cheers guys

Same place you get adjustable wenches.

If its under a sink why are you not using normal solder in elbows?

Pipe bending in most applications is to keep colleges busy.

Not really a solder kind of guy (can't do it ) so compression or bending. So I thought I'd try bending as it looks much neater in my opinion.
