Sheet Metal Brakes
Any suggestions on the best all around sheer/brake setup for auto interior and engine compartment bending?
Maybe something from Harbor Freight? Thanks! :cool: |
Neal,
You might want to watch the auction ads in your local paper and try to score a nice used one. |
Neal,
I found a 6' for $695 at www.midamericanonline.com. It's not a shear, but a chalk line and a pair of large hand shears works for me. Scott |

Neal,
I have had some success with this machine. http://www.grizzly.com/products/item...011&startrow=1 Costs about $300.00 and is a combination brake, slip roll and sheer. I also bought a bead roller form harbour freight for about a 100 bucks on sale. |

Thanks, Guys! I am checking with Harbor Freight and some local sources.
Roger, How wide is the combo unit you have? Your work looks great! :cool: |
Neil,
The combo I have the 30" wide . Seems to be just about right for doing interior work. I highly reccommend the bead roller, it reall "dresses up " the work. How is the Cheeta coming along .. any pictures. Roger |
