    Have to give that I try. That would not be code, but might work for a garden irrigation system. I have made a chamfer on one end of a pipe, then heated PVC pressed the pipe into make a bell then either glue or run a screw in hold them together, Of course the screw leaks a little but in the garden that is not tragic.

    Never thought to try this, but could be a great way to fabricate while being able to disassemble. Thank you.

    Technically, that isn't conduit. It is pipe. Conduit is used for wire. You'd never pull wire thru that 90.

    At least not more than a 25 to 30% fill with small conductors.
    Always hated having to use these in tight spaces
