Default forming tygon tubing

just thought i would drop this little tip (im sure some of u already know)...i had some 1/2 x 3/4 tygon tubing and i need a tight 90 deg bend to go from my gpu water block to my pump(u can see in the pic how short of a distance i had to work with)....anyway i took a 1/2 od spring and slid it down the inside of the tubing and then took a clothes hang and put it inside the spring and bent it to about 15 to 20 deg past 90 and put it in boiling water for 15 min and to my suprise it came out at a prefect 90 degree..


i hope this helps someone

the pic doesnt show my new setup but u can see the tight bend i needed(pics coming soon when i get my new setup done)
