Hello I am about to build the same break I was wondering what the measurement was for in between the two legs for your machine I was think about 55 1/2
@edwardperez3599 Awesome to hear!, Good luck with your build, Here's the link below direct to my website were you can find the measurements. www.marcustomz.com/shop/p/diy-50-press-brake-frame-build-plans
Man, I just accidentally found this channel and I'm a subscriber now. That shop set up is legit man. You're definitely using all the space. And this finger brake is one of the slickest builds I've seen on these kits.
Nice build! I built a similar press brake about 10 years ago utilizing 3 twenty ton air/over jacks. Bottom die is a 4 way 4" square 50" long 4140 chrome moly beast, cost 1500.00 used but in nice shape. Bottom bed goes up and down 40" of travel to get the big stuff out. I bend 1/4 x 2' long plate in it often to build wood stoves.
Very Nice. Thank you. Our shop is in the East African bush, so swag is not really available here. However, your video is inspiring and informative. I think we have the tech. to get close. Asante Sana
Nice Brake!! I just built something very similar. I just bought a second jack (it will hold up to 3) and found it pumps about 40% faster! I ordered some flow control valves to put on each line hoping it will solve the problem. For your downstroke, I recommend using some limit switches and air solenoid valves for auto stop (stroke limit). Make a mechanism that allows you to roll past the limit switches for manual jog. My build is a little heavier but narrower (36") and tuned within about 0.003" on the downstroke. Although left and right sides are up to 0.080 off if the material isn't centered. With two jacks, finishing the bend by hand, I can stop the stroke on the thousandth. I'm hoping adding the second jack and limit switch tunes it in for both sides. I literally have digital calipers clamped and spring loaded on each side to measure the downstroke -- not stupid if it works 😂 Looking to continue the automation into full CNC with back gauge. If you'd like to know more about my build get ahold of me, it's not documented online but I'll share what I know. Also curious what your thoughts are on the SWAG kit after using it some time. I have opted for homemade dies so far but am set up for standard tooling.
@@brodin667 What I used was a "needle valve" (not technically a needle valve) on the airline of the faster cylinder. I adjusted it until both pumps were synced as close as possible. It will not be perfect, but it's a bandaid that will make it somewhat better. My current setup involves two distance sensors feeding back to an arduino that opens and closes solenoid valves as needed to stay in adjustment.
That means the world to me. Speaking of graffiti, I would practice graffiti tags on a piece of drywall on my patio during my technical institute days. Then hit up the rail yards with close friends. Thanks for watching and I appreciate your support.
Jeff Gilbert thanks I appreciate you watching Marcustomz Garage. I'm looking forward to see how the channel might grow. It's never to late to get back in the fabrication game. 🤜🏾
Thanks 👊🏾 Iann128, I definitely had to sit and stare at it on the table for a good while to figure out how I could manage the removal solo without getting hurt.
Thanks for sharing I'm definitely building this,for my factory Lagos nigeria. How many tonne is the machine ? What is the maximum sheet metal thickness it can bend. Nice build
Thanks for watching Marcustomz Garage, I purchased the pedal from Amazon. I'm looking forward to getting back in the garage soon and give my thoughts on this press brake build next month.
Man! That is a great build. First time finding your channel. Subscribed instantly. Definitely going to go back and watch your other content. Break dancing was fun, too. 😂
@Aesopsnavel thanks for watching Marcustomz Garage. I've noticed one time the jacks wernt insync on a very wide bend. The right side was a 1/8 off different from left.. I corrected this by opening the center jack first, followed by slightly/barely opening the side that was lower to sync them. I then closed the two jacks and continued bending the metal. Thanks for your question. I hope to make a follow up video this Fall.
Thank you dougcamp230, yes I need gonna to get these measurements put together for those like yourself to build. Let me reach out to a friend and see what program he uses to organize something like this. Thanks for your interest.

We use steel wheels on our welding machine carts because they roll good over any dirt and debris that maybe on the production floor and they don’t get flat spots from setting in the same spot for long periods. Good luck.
Just found your channel. If you keep making project videos like this, I'll be back! Super envious, that press is ridiculously cool. If there's not a crane project video yet, then you need a shop crane. BTW, what's that quote from JAWS; "You're gonna need a bigger garage?" And some led back lighting for the cutout gussets would be MORE over the top, just saying.
Great video. Very talented to get it all fitted and plumbed up to work in unison. Have you scratched the paint yet? A tool isn't a tool until you have your first "character mark" in it. How many man hours do you estimate? Would you change anything now that you've used it?
Thanks for watching mandeladams4793. Not a scratch on the surface yet ☺️. I honestly probably have more hours in designing, sourcing the materials and preparation than the actual build. The only thing I would change in the future if production and time calls for it. Would be to convert the Press Brake to full Hydraulic press for speed. I just love that the capabilities of this tool is more than capable to bend almost anything you put in it's way without needing 3 phase and taking up alot of space. Overall the build took me about 4 months to build on and off. Thanks again for watching Marcustomz Garage ✌🏾.
Whats your opening between your Ibeams?. If you dont mind me asking. Are your 6x6s 60in?. Im about to build one and want to make sure i get a comfortable working height when bending material
Would you share the dimensions you used for the top of the lower channel from the ground and also the width you used for the press brake to fit into? Thank you
Mad skills, impressive! You ever have any binding issues with your Crossfire Pro on the X Y travers? My machine always binds as I get close to the right front corner. Played with it for weeks leveling, resetting bearing guides and still no luck.
Thanks nickmcnellis3937, I wish I could answer your question. I Guarantee you will find your answer in the "Langmuir Crossfire Owners" group on Facebook.
Thanks for watching Pete RW. I haven't had a issue yet with bends being uneven yet. Maybe because I'm bending light weight Aluminum. I haven't tried a full length of 3/16 or 1/4 steel yet, so I'm not sure if the jacks would have issues. I do hear some have issues on forums and groups. I could possibly make a video bending full 50" width materials and measure the consistency or inconsistencies. Thanks for fueling the idea.
@Marcus,,, OK man,,, from one fabricator to another,,, you do the same kind of stuff I do as far as pimping out my tools, just because I can and it shows pride in your work & attention to detail. Kudo's to you brother. I just found your channel, as I was about to build my 50" press brake. You've thrown down the gauntlet with this one. It's game time. I'll send out some pics of my creation once it's done. Now I just gotta make sure I don't copy your design,, because it is sick. I actually love your design. Now I just gotta squeeze in time to my 100 hour weeks to weld for myself.

First time seeing your channel tonight because I was searching diy press brakes. Watched the whole video and thoroughly enjoyed it! Just assumed you probably had 30 or 40 or even 50K subs. I was shocked to see how small the channel is! It actually makes the quality of your content even more impressive. Good work brother!
Hey just curious you have had this for a while now are you happy with them press, or do you think better off trying to buy one? As far as making pans etc. Does it work well for percison bends etc. Thank you very much looks great
Great questions @nicholaskenny3980 I'm am still happy with the purchase and build of this press brake. I'm learning tight compound radius bends. I plan on making some interchangeable custom bed dies in the future as needed. I believe this machine bends well enough for the hobbyist. Probably not quick and persist enough for production work. Although I'm going to use mine for production work for a startup. Thanks for watching Marcustomz Garage.
Thanks man I'd say I send out 5% of my work because I can bend over 16 gauge it annoying and time consuming running around. I need to be able to bend treads 1/4 for stairs and 1/8 aluminum for 38x48 pans. With 4" lip this is my last question if you think it's good enough for this stuff I'll order it up.and start the build. Problem with buying a press brake 3phase, transportation etc. I really appreciate your help alot can't thank you enough single dad, small business trying to make right choices.
@nrkwelding3765 This Press Brake is Absolutely Capable of bending 1/4" and 1/8". I'd have to check and make sure before I tell you it can do 4" deep pans. I'm sure is could with some adjustment. But let me check first. Thanks for following my channel.
Ron Herman, thanks for your interest, I'm searching for a stainless steel hardware supplier currently. I can notify you as soon as I make the site live.
Hey Marc do you have any details of the plumbing for the air? P.s. The speckled paint job is tight. Also have you done any full length maximum capacity bends yet? Curious about the material crowning or not. Cheers
XUV Great Question and attention to details. I asked the same question on a press break group on Facebook, and apparently there's a Urethane film that can be lined on the lower die to prevent scraches and markings. It's available on Amazon under a brand called Poly Hyde. I'll probably order some very soon. Thanks for watching Marcustomz Garage.
Hey I'm thinking of building same thing have been for a while great video whatbis max thickness full lenth this will do? And would it benefit to do bigger jacks
NRK welding this 50" setup can bend 1/4" steel full length of the bed. If you're needing to bend steel thicker than 1/4" steel full length of the bed, than you may need bigger air hydraulic jacks and a more robust frame than this one I built. Thanks for watching Marcustomz Garage.
No I think 1/4 would be great I love the foot pedal, you do amazing work. I'm always in such a rush to get things done, I know mine won't be as good as yours. But your the first person to take the time to make this detailed and keep it simple. I may have a few questions as I start the build. Thanks.
@@nrkwelding3765 Thanks, I know the impatient feeling very well, I'd have more videos to upload if I showed everything I get myself in to 😄. I'd be happy to answer any question or share my opinions when you start you build. ✌🏾
Phenomenal build! Do you have a link for where you bought the jacks and the foot control for them by chance. I’ve been designing one of these in Fusion 360 for a while and your video has me sold on the Swagoffroad kit instead of building my own dies.
Derek Chaplin, thank you, I purchased the jacks from Harbor Freight when they were on sale. I also designed the body of the brake on Fusion 360 as best as I could in 2D with a front and side few. I hope to learn 3D in Fusion 360 this winter. If you have any recommendations on videos or classes to take, I would sure appreciate it. Thanks for watching Marcustomz Garage.
I see most of these larger builds are designed with a large center opening with the jacks looking to be fully extended. How did you determine the height of the opening? Also how long did you cut the i beams for the 50" die set?
@bmgstang thanks for watching Marcustomz Garage. The advantage of having the Jacks almost fully extended is you will have space for larger projects in the future that may need a larger space between the the finger dies and the bottom v-die after a bend. I determined the height of the opening from Swagoffroad website. But also other builds, and came up with my own measurements.
Great build! I’m not sure how I feel about this versus an typical brake but your version is amazing. If you could automate the three open valves then it be so sick.
Best thing I did with my 40" swag press was throw the bottom half in the scrap. Made a 1/2*5/8 tool holder for the bottom so I can run common tooling instead of their piece of angle iron.

Hi buddy I got a 8’ handbrake do you know what I need to convert into a hydraulic brake? Great video thanks
Awesome build! Keep the videos coming!
Do you sell the plans for this break ??
@johndeninger8905 Yes, I do at www.marcustomz.com/shop/p/diy-50-press-brake-frame-build-plans
Hey I'm thinking of building same thing have been for a while great video whatbis max thickness full lenth this will do? And would it benefit to do bigger jacks
NRK welding this 50" setup can bend 1/4" steel full length of the bed. If you're needing to bend steel thicker than 1/4" steel full length of the bed, than you may need bigger air hydraulic jacks and a more robust frame than this one I built. Thanks for watching Marcustomz Garage.
No I think 1/4 would be great I love the foot pedal, you do amazing work. I'm always in such a rush to get things done, I know mine won't be as good as yours. But your the first person to take the time to make this detailed and keep it simple. I may have a few questions as I start the build. Thanks.
@@nrkwelding3765 Thanks, I know the impatient feeling very well, I'd have more videos to upload if I showed everything I get myself in to 😄. I'd be happy to answer any question or share my opinions when you start you build. ✌🏾
Great.. work Brother what’s the measurements?

It's a beast partner..nice job
Thanks for watching.
Phenomenal build! Do you have a link for where you bought the jacks and the foot control for them by chance. I’ve been designing one of these in Fusion 360 for a while and your video has me sold on the Swagoffroad kit instead of building my own dies.
Derek Chaplin, thank you, I purchased the jacks from Harbor Freight when they were on sale. I also designed the body of the brake on Fusion 360 as best as I could in 2D with a front and side few. I hope to learn 3D in Fusion 360 this winter. If you have any recommendations on videos or classes to take, I would sure appreciate it. Thanks for watching Marcustomz Garage.
Marcus how did you sync up the 3 air over jacks?
It's pretty straight forward, the three way adapter distributes the pressure equally to each jack. I haven't had any issues with inconsistencies
Press turned out great 👍
Very nice work! That’s one stout machine.
Thanks williamweesner1191

Awesome build!
Looks awesome, nice job
Cameron Jacobs thanks for watching.
Just stumbled on your page man hit that subscribe button people he does awesome work
I see most of these larger builds are designed with a large center opening with the jacks looking to be fully extended. How did you determine the height of the opening? Also how long did you cut the i beams for the 50" die set?
@bmgstang thanks for watching Marcustomz Garage. The advantage of having the Jacks almost fully extended is you will have space for larger projects in the future that may need a larger space between the the finger dies and the bottom v-die after a bend. I determined the height of the opening from Swagoffroad website. But also other builds, and came up with my own measurements.
@@marcustomz ok I see how that could be necessary for some jobs, thanks. I should be making one soon. Looking forward to seeing what you do next!

I can not translate your comment.
great job buddy, just found your channel 👍👍👍👍
You do awesome work
Michael Tinari Thanks ,and I appreciate your Subscribing to Marcustomz Garage.👊🏾
Great build! I’m not sure how I feel about this versus an typical brake but your version is amazing. If you could automate the three open valves then it be so sick.
@George F thank you for watching Marcustomz Garage.
Best thing I did with my 40" swag press was throw the bottom half in the scrap. Made a 1/2*5/8 tool holder for the bottom so I can run common tooling instead of their piece of angle iron.
Nice, do you have a picture?
@@marcustomz sent it to you on IG 👍
