So who all have had trouble bending copper pipe. Get a real close bend is hard. But if you take the pipe and freeze water inside of it. You can put it on a bender and bend it. The frosen water hold the internal shape of the pipe, so no worry of crimping the pipe.

a fine grain sand or something like rice will also do the same thing

you can use a freezer, like what you would use for food. But you just wont be able to put all the line in it.
