- In this video I make workshop drawer dividers to organise my tools. I use my new 3 in 1 universal sheet metal machine from Warco which is a shear, press brake and slip roll in one.

Great job. Good tip for sheet metal is to drill a hole in the corners as a stress relief and end point for the bends
Great tip! Thanks.
Hi, would you explain that please? Thanks
This was a great video. I honestly have no idea why I liked it so much, but it was just fun to watch.
Thanks Adam, much appreciated!
For your first attempt Jonesey you did very well. Yes please whenever you get a chance some sheet metal projects will be fun.🤞👍
Thanks! More in the pipeline!
They are a very useful tool but like all cheap tools some fettling will improve them - first is to change the washers on the cutting blade bolts for something more substantial . I hade to machine the folder fingers so they were all the same length as well .
That’s a good call. The fingers are not the same length on mine either. Washer’s need a chance too
I'd love to see more sheet metal stuff!
I'll get on it!
I’ve used a block of wood to distribute the blows but the padded vise is a great idea. Nice video and great project most of us can really use!
Thanks!
Nice video, you can get a door skin folder to turn that safe edge but you’ll most probably get a better finish with the vice
Thanks for the advice Mark, nice one.
Always wanted to see one if these machines in action. Great video.
Thanks!
Wonderful, informative videos!!!
Please continue making these videos.
Thank You
Thanks very much, plenty more videos in the pipeline
@@joneseymakes Awesome. Thanks
Thank you for the videos, my man. Very entertaining.
Thanks for watching!
These little machines are great value for the price, Well i got a Clarke from MachineMart for £340 and as yo say these all tend to come from the same factory just with different colours and names for the Client
The first thing i did was make a bigger side Stop as that small thing is 100% useless
second thing i did was squared up the bed to the cut as it was out of alignment,
one thing i will say, Don't try to cut 1mm Mild steel it will dull your cutting edge, I did just after one test, and so i had to surface grind it good again and heat treated.
and by the way im for ever tidying my drawers up as its an on going battle :)
Tips, when forming use your square at the side of the work to the edge of the blade, this help make sure the material is nice and square
also when you mark your fold lines,
take a quarter of the thickness of the material, so lets say a 20mm bend using 1mm,
Then put a bend line 19.7 or 2 Quarters of the thickness of the material depending on the Tool V Gap the.
Their is a formular but im not going to bore you with that as this simple way for thin material is good enough
also put a relief cut into your fold corners about 0.5mm for 1mm material, this gives a relief to the corner when the material stretches and prevents cracking and bulging/deforming extra
anyway all this will tighten up your corners to almost a zero gap
hope this information helps
Great advice, thanks. I'll try those tips out!
Your welcome
And to say I use massive machines at work and form /bend up to 25mm
The only thing I'm not good at is giving precise info via messages
So hope what I have said that one can understand lol
Another tip I can say it .use a scriber instead of a thick marker
And when scribed /marked out .is use some french chalk and rub against your scribe line to get better visibility of the markings or use a blue dye and then scribe over
It helps to see the scribe lines
Great tool addition to your shop. Nice work on the pans for the tool box.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks 👍
excellent work. very inspiring.
Cheers!
for the first attempt it was a pretty good result, congratulations and Thank you for sharing
Thanks, plenty more projects planned so hoping to improve as I go!
You should have left the tabs on to make the corners stronger...
I run the edges through my bead roller between two flat homemade rollers... Does a neater job than hamnering..
Great, thanks for the tip
Hi, do you have videos ? Thanks
Great video, thanks for sharing, I bought this machine and I really want to use it often... Looking forward to seeing more videos from you
Thanks, much appreciated!
Nice job! Especially for your first time.
Thanks!
Looks like a pretty good bit of kit
Yeah I think it is for the money
Very nice! Great idea with the corner tabs and the vise. Subscribed and looking forward to seeing other projects from you. I too picked up one of these machines (used) but have opted to build a rolling stand for it before I start using it.
Good to have you on board! Good luck with the new machine.
I spent the whole video yelling at the screen; "USE THE VICE! USE THE VICE!"
Another tip it to drill a small hole like 4mm at the corner cusps before cutting with the tinsnips or bending.
These will be the bottom 4 corners of the finished tray. The hole make the bending easier and neater and reduces tearing metal stresses etc.
Haha! I got there in the end. Thanks for the tip, I actually just bought a punch to do exactly that with the corners.
@@joneseymakes ... punch might do it on the real thin stuff, but the drill is probably better for stress relieving.
Anyway I look forward to seeing more successes! I'm almost convinced to buy one of these, I have a few projects coming up where it might earn it's keep. 👍
I think I understand where the holes must be 😊 at the bottom of the union corners. Great, I have this machine but I would like to see videos of different projects
The safe edges you refer to are often called 'hems'
I'd make all the hems first. Then fold up the sides.
To flatten the hems use a block of wood, maybe 1" by 2" by 6"
Hit the cut edges of the hem, not the folded over part.
You want a 'smooth, rounded edge, not a sharp one.
Great little tool - you'll soon be making the wife a custom spice rack 😆
Thanks for the tip. I'll have to get on to the spice rack!!
Nice job
Nice job! Definitely some room for mods on that machine though. I’d looked at the Machine Mart unit a few times. This looks the same, except much lower cost.
I think they probably come out of the same factory. What mods would you suggest?
@@joneseymakes - I think you’d already mentioned the mods that I’d want to make in your video - Lengthening the guide to square metal up to the blade more effectively, and I thought that if you could somehow get better clearance when the press is opened, that would be much less frustrating to use. Looks like a great piece of kit in any case, I imagine that you’ll be able to make loads of stuff with it!
If you do a small cut with a left hand and right hand aviation snips then you can hook the cuts on the bottom blade of the gillo and get a square cut where you want it. Hope this helps
That sounds like a great tip, I’ll be sure to try that, thanks.
Nice little machine, really useful and pretty complete it seems sturdy too. Of course your have to deal with the teeth of the brake, otherwise...👌🖖👍
Yes I’m pleased with it so far. Thanks for the comment
Good video
Thanks!
Cool 😎
Thanks!
Great, now you can come and do mine......:)
😂 Indeed!
Hi Nick, I know, I'm months behind! One idea might be to make some more fingers - of different widths. Narrower ones might allow you to fold things like tabs on a different line to the main side for example.
Hi Bob, great idea, I'll do that, thanks.
Nice....
Thanks!
Came out nice 👌
I probably would have just used the 3d printer
Yeah, but I need to justify the metal bender to the Mrs ;-)
@@joneseymakes smart move 😅😃
swimming m8
👍👍👍
The first is the worst. On anything. You did well and you can only get better! :)
Thanks!
There are sheet metal pliers available for bending small tabs and those safety edges, they clamp down really tight and you have to be careful because they will pinch your fingers
Thanks, I'll look out for some.
All pliers are designed to pinch fingers. It's a scientific fact. 😎
@@wizrom3046 I know that 😉😜
What mill and lathe do you have?
Both Warco. The mill is a super major and the lathe is a GH1330
Good build the 3/1 is a handy tool, but not the easiest to use…imo
Thanks, I find it useful but do agree.
You should learn tig welding now.
This is on my list. I have a machine but I’ve not got to grips with it yet
I dont have the patience to have to remove dies every time to get it out of the machine.
