KF5006 Box and Pan Brake Sheet Metal Folder Bending Brake Metal Forming Machine Max Capacity 24 Inch (610mm) 20 Ga (1.0mm) with 5 Fingers 0-135 deg

Well I’m very impressed by the quality. It arrived in perfect condition and on time. Money well spent. Especially for making smaller parts. Very cool machine and I’m a professional at this stuff. Great retirement hobby. 5 stars indeed

I used this to make screen covers for vents under the house and in the attic. The screen I used was 1/8" gaps and stainless steel. I had no problem making all the bends and they look professional. Approximate size of rough blanks were 7" × 17".

Overall, I'm pleased with this box and pan brake. It's very good for hobbyist purposes. My only complaint is that the fingers allow you to bend any length from 1" to 24", EXCEPT 7"! The fingers are 10", 8", 3", 2", and 1". So, you can make any combination except 7". All they needed to do to correct this was to include one extra 1" finger. Wouldn't you know, I need to make a 7" bend.

Works

Will bend sheet metal nicely

Made very good

I have to be honest, this tool is pretty decent, although a little expensive for what it is able to do. I bought it being optimistic that I'd get it to bend 18 gauge and small pieces of 16 gauge when needed occasionally. I was a little disappointed that the 16 gauge had to be very small or it would not bend it. 18 gauge proved to be a problem also if the piece was not small enough. I ended up using 6" pieces welded together for my project. I could have bought a less expensive version to perform this task. It's not a bad tool, but be aware that they are not being conservative with their gauge recommendations. Best for 20 gauge and thinner if youre working with anything 12" or longer. I feel like I might have been better off with the cheaper HF brand which bends the same material for less.

Works good using for 16 Ga aluminum
