Anyone have any recommendations for a small sheet metal break? I'm looking for something that will work on .020" material, up to about 11 or 12" wide. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Burl,
In the latest Micro-Mark catalog there is a mini bending brake that is 18" wide and will take metal up to 16 gauge. It is on page 86 and is item #82817.

I have that one, though I got mine through House of Tools in Alberta. Very handy, indeed.

cheers...pete

Harbor Freight has a small Bench Brake (18" wide) on sale with coupons this week.

Garden Railroad IS fun, it really IS!

I actually bought the one from harbor freight about a month ago. I'm pretty satisfied with it.
