Is it a Metal Press? Brake? Bender?… who knows. In this video I’ll show you how I made a simple jig that allows me to easily bend plate steel and sheet metal around the shop for DIY projects, of course this thing isn’t perfect.. it’s a prototype of an idea and I’d love to hear if you’ve got good ideas on how to improve it. Leave me a comment and I may include it on version 2 🙂

2:25 those are hex nuts, not wing nuts ;) Oh. I see what you did there. Using wing nuts at the end. They do look more user friendly xD
