Hi Brian;
the demurred tool has not sold yet.

Hi Brian, For fittings, I machined a .25" R on my Harbor Freight brake and used this on all jobs not included in my partial kits. All bends formed in 6061-T6 material without cracks. 3/16" R is getting tight for T6 material that is not really thin. Check the minimum bend radius for the size that are are bending.
Best Regards,
Larry Zepp
I will do that. hopefully flying is going to happen real soon!

Hi Brian,
I got a King Industrial shear (model BB-F5216). 52 inches cut up to 16 gage steel.
The Box and Brake (hand brake) is made by Empire Machinery & Tools. Bend lenghts up to 8 feet.
They both were bought used but in really great shape. The shear weighs 1500 lbs and the brake is 2200lbs or more.
Regards,
Norm
