**PowerMk** · Jan 29, 2020, 03:41 PM

Hello Guys!
Today I finished my homemade sheet metal brake.
I used a steel corner 120cm with 50mm x 5mm
M20 & M16 threaded rods with nuts
2 adapters 1/2 ''
Ø 26 round tube
Ø 18 hinges

Very nice brake. From 10:08 - 10:20, you are braking a pan. I am curious how did you bend the ends, without crushing the previously bent sides?

Thank you !
The bent sides is 3cm so I used a 3cm rectangle tube and 3mm steel flat bar . Stop the video at 10:17 or 18 and you will see it .
