Niiiice! This is exactly the video I imagined in my little brain before searching. Spot on perfect. I’m only bending 1/8” on a table top press from Harbor freight. Basically your setup scales down. I was scoring my bend on the inside then hammering it over, but this will eliminate that step. Thank you good sir.
Thanks for the video mate, a side note for the bottom section, if you shimmed up either side of the 2 angle pieces before welding you would create an angle less than 90. 89 or 88 is preferred, then you can bend to a true 90.
@@firewoodwarrior4396 yep, could slip a length of 2mm thick sheet/flat bar under the outsides of both sections of angle before welding. You’d have to then modify the top arbor to be less than 90 also, or just use a single length of 1/2” plate with beveled edges like a traditional press brake.
2:45 i'd recommend tacking both sides of something before putting much weld on...or if not, then weld the ends first. if you put too much heat on one side, even with clamps it can still warp a bit.
I just have done the metal bender and instead of the press, I did use the threaded rod. I am not strong enough to bent 3/8 piece but I can bend 4' 1mm thick sheet with ease! Great video by the way!
Great video. If you want 90 degree bends you need to make the vee slightly less than 90 to allow for spring back. Or take your portable swing press to it to complete the bend.
You sir are the best out of all the Videos out their very simple to build you can go to your local scrap yard now a days buy it durt cheap .Thank you for the video
Hi Tyler, thanks for a great video. If you wanted to, couldn't you create a finger press with different sized top pieces? Could you make different sized bottom parts with smaller angle iron to work with smaller pieces of metal? I feel like you've hit on something here, but you've only scratched the surface.
Are you able to order your metal and get it shipped or do you have to go ever so often and pick up a load? Hey I have a need to roll one long side of a 24 " x 6" x 1/8" plate. I need a 1" radius and it offsets 2 inches exactly if it were laying flat on the table measuring the L part sticking strait up. I bet with piece of 2 inch pipe split open and reinforced I could make like a stamp like you have your Vee and bend the metal I need?
If you make the die a bit deeper you can do what's called "air bending" instead of bottoming out in the die, that way you can do angles equal to and less than 90. Cool setup.
Would putting a sharper edge on the angle iron you are using to bend the 3/8" plate (or thinner) give a better 90 degree angle? SWAG's dies look like they have a real sharp angle, almost like a knife edge. Does the angle need to be hardened? (I just got a 20 ton HF press). Thanks!
Thanks Kenny. I think it’s a Steelmax. That is what is called a “dry cut” chopsaw. Spins at a lower rpm and uses a metal blade. It cuts so smooth and creates virtually no heat
I love it! I have a Milwaukee dry cut saw in my personal shop that is really nice too. Once you use this style saw you will NEVER go back to the traditional abrasive blade saws!
Looked around for both the Steel Max and Milwaukee, have only seen Dewalt and Makita. Where did you get yours. I've not looked at Sacramento Machine yet.@@farmertylerranch4399

A lovely Sunday afternoon watch! I’m not sure why so many people over complicate these presses, yours is spot on cheers
I built this exact brake from your idea, bends 1/8 beautifully. Thanks!!

Brilliant yòu have some great equipment there and I'm slowly learning what you use it all for

Good job..nice to see you sharing your skills..
Great job and nice welds
I bought the 20 ton compressor jack at HF and i love it compared to pumping all day - was only 99.00 and you get alot more power.
2:45 i'd recommend tacking both sides of something before putting much weld on...or if not, then weld the ends first. if you put too much heat on one side, even with clamps it can still warp a bit.
That was awesome man!
Great job, nice to know that 20T can work up to 3/8. That's some stout stuff.

Will be making a press brake with my everlast welder soon. Thanks for the video.
Awesome Oliver! You’re going to love it! Hope this helped!
@@farmertylerranch4399 Oliver is not a real person. This is spamming from Everlast. It's all through TH-cam videos. F'n shame that they can do this!

Thank you very much Tony!
Thanks a bunch for the video! Your welds looked really good, are you using shielding gas or flux core or dual? Jim
Hi, bro , could u please tell your chop saw Blake brand ? 😊
I'm gonna make one looks great
Me reading title: Shoot, I can make that press break
Love it. Great job sir!
Thank you!
Nice looking welds
Great project. Might not be so bad with a longer jack handle lol.
Haha yeah you could say that!
That's what she said. Lol
That must be 1 3/4" tube you used to fit onto the 1 1/2" I have DOM 1 1/2" that is a 16th" too small to fit. Thanks for the video
Nice video. I am interested in this gate latch bracket that you built. How does it work? Thanks.
Works great!
Nice welds!

Hi Tyler, when measuring and marking your steel to bend, is there a trick to getting it right?
If you make the die a bit deeper you can do what's called "air bending" instead of bottoming out in the die, that way you can do angles equal to and less than 90. Cool setup.
Since you said it takes some extra effort to bend that steel. You should go to harbor freight and buy a air jack and swap into that press.
That’s a great idea. Thanks Michael
good idea
Awesome good idea
Thanks Luis!
Real Nice, thank you
Hi Tayler, can you make me one of this?
What are the specifications of the hydraulic Jack
Would putting a sharper edge on the angle iron you are using to bend the 3/8" plate (or thinner) give a better 90 degree angle? SWAG's dies look like they have a real sharp angle, almost like a knife edge. Does the angle need to be hardened? (I just got a 20 ton HF press). Thanks!
👍👍👍 Job well done 🌷🌷👍🌷🌷
It bent 3/8".... I was not expecting that!
Change out the jack for an air/hydrolic
What chop saw are you using?
It’s a cold cut saw
So lets say i use a 20 ton jack and i make this 4 feet long to do 3 maybe 4 foot wide will it be suitable in your opinion?
I really couldn’t say. You’d need one hell of a rigid set up and if you only bent light material it might work?
@@farmertylerranch4399 i am not looking to bend anything over 1/8 max magbe 1/16 maybe it is mainly for sheetmetal.
Great video !!!!what blade do you have on your chop saw?
