I’m an electrician trainee and very new to conduit bending.

So the length of the floating wood is 9 1/2” and the height is 10 3/4”
I’m doing a 30 degree bend with multiplier of 2.


I marked the first mark at 9 1/2” then from that mark I measured 21 2/4”, but it just passes to far from the wood that is standing straight, which am doing a 90 degree stub up

Am I suppose to bend it at 45 degree instead of 30?
