Hey Martin whats up?  This brake design is from macsmachine.com. He is a builder on this site.  If you go to his website and check out "special offer".  If you buy the brake plans and finish it send him a picture he will put your picture up on his website and give you your money back for the plans.  Thanks talk soon.

Now we are talking !!!! nice 1 Jesse. I like your workshop, it looks like Baron Von Richtoven's den :) I would be interested in seeing the drawings for the break.I am currently looking for a 2.5meter box and pan folder, to try kill two birds with 1 stone. Prices are childish tho. One crowd wanted seventy four grand for 1. I may also end up making 1 like yours. Nice work.

Wow, Jesse that is a nice brake. The angle iron with a hinge worked but that would really have been nice. I can see you like to fabricate, and do it well. Almost time to start the plane fabrication.now. What is your plan for forming jigs?
