I have used my 20 ton press in the past to make bends on sheet metal. I have always wanted to have a sheet metal brake but never wanted to take up the floor space in my small shop for one. Thought about a bench brake but not haven’t purchased one yet. Nice work David on making the brackets

These are a nice add on . You can buy or build your own . There is a finger brake version as well . I want to build a multi-funtion floor model press . I have the same problem with space so need one thing to do incorporate many machines .
