Re: Sheet Metal Brake
I have one of these: http://www.harborfreight.com/garage-...roll-5907.html

Nice because it can cut/shear thin stock also. Used it last year to build our minibot.

Just tried some 1/8" scraps. It will easily bend strips up to 2" wide, beyond that it gets hard, and will not shear 1/8" aluminum.
