I'm actually an electrician by trade. I didn't think any pipe I could bend by hand would be strong enough but maybe I'm over-thinking how strong this needs to be.

Use a hydraulic bender. If your company doesn't have one your electrical supply store can tell you who has one. Bring them your 1 1/2" pipe (not Ridgid conduit because it is galvanized) and five minutes later it will be bent. Not as neat as OEM because it will have ripples in the tight bend needed for a guard. But very cheap.

Garydc. Nice job! I think I'll try to build something similar to yours.

Actually I did borrow a sidewinder conduit bender, it handled the Black pipe 1 inch sized very well with out ripples??
