Looking at various resources, I keep noticing that hand mandrel benders are only good for soft (coiled) copper tubing. For my project I need to get a new geometry with 5/8" OD tubing. This this possible or should I just use a series of fittings? Thank you

Thanks as always, Wayne.

Hello Reach. This is actually not a laundry sink but a utility sink in the garage. It is out of physical reach as indicated on my picture from before
