4 ft Sheet Metal Brake - DXF FILES

Make your own 4 ft Sheet Metal Brake with this set of DXF files and a few readily available parts.  Once assembled, this machine can bend up to 4 ft of 18 ga mild steel sheet, saving you weld inches when fabricating 3D parts from sheet metal. **This is a DIY project and the results depend on your skill and attention during the fabrication process. Excessive heat during welding, improper alignment of the hinges, and substituting other parts/materials will all affect the performance and longevity of this machine.  It is not intended to be the best brake you've ever used, it is intended to be a fun project that will teach you a lot about fabricating and give you the opportunity to learn the basics of metal forming at a low cost.
