Sheet Metal Bender Brake Part3 (DIY) Fully Modified

[kess]

This is the third and last part of this video series,
and includes all possible modifications that could be made.
1.Adding a truss with two adjustable web members at the clamp,
make it more stable and stiffer increasing the pressure at the center.
2.Adding a truss at the bender make it stiffer, stop the distortion,
and increasing the force at the center.
3.Replace M10 bolts to M12.
Quick lock and release by hand, no needed wrench or any tool.
4.The clamp now can move in/out according to the thickness of material,
and has adjustable and secure stops.
I can't imagine any other modifications, but if anyone has any suggestions are welcome.

My Best Wishes
for a
Happy New Year
to Everyone
