Keep in mind this is for my backyard set up.

I'm mainly just looking for dimension help.
(Size of coping to use, how angled to bend it, length, ect.)

I DO have access to a pipe bender, so that part won't be too difficult, i just need to know approximate size.

I'm a member, so I searched in there, but found nothing.
And the ski gabber is a little more active than the B.A.J 101, so I posted it in here.
Sorry.

Pipe bender is best.  You may need to take it to a machine shop to pull off an S bend though.

if you live near a college, you could probably take it to their machine shop, tell um wat you wanna do and they will probably do it for free

my buddy has access to all that stuff on campus

We don't know what you have access to. Only you do. I suggest you take a tape measure and some string and lay it out.

Pipe benders come in many sizes and specifications. Please re-read my post for what size you should make it.
