Hi and thanks for reading my post. Can anybody refer me to a source, either
a book or the internet, on how to layout pipe and make precise bends. When
I say precise I mean being able to make multiple bends so the pipe can be
the proper distance from a wall or bending around an obstruction to make a
connection. What is the proper technique for bending rigid copper? Your
help is much appreciated!

Ratchet Bender.

Many of those same companies offer benders for rigid copper, steel, etc...

Imperial Eastman is another company to check out.
