I'm finally getting my new garage set up with the the tools I need to make fabricating easier. One thing I have been searching for on Craig's but haven't had much luck on was a cheap metal brake. The HF metal brake is in my opinion not worth the cost of what the tool does. It's pretty light duty for what I want in a bender. I convinced my dad to make me one since he is always looking for small projects that can keep him busy during winter. He is working on it now, hopefully I can get some pictures of it the next time I stop over.
Here are the prints. Yes there are 3 air rams, 2 will be for clamping the metal and 1 for bending.
