It works really well too, what you cant see is that the "Vee" blocks are removable and can be replaced with all manner of variations the pressing blade too can be changed, as it is now the blade is welded on but in the original sketch it was held on quite simply by two nuts, (on construction day I just got a little lazy) by changing the blade you can press radiused bends, and by changing the vee blocks you can bend serious plate, if anyone wants a sketch I have no problems providing one, It'll take a few days to sketch it up though but I don't mind as I was always going to do it anyway so just ask.
Best Regards
Rick,
PS, Darren, sorry bud, I don't get it? It's probably me, it's been one of those days.
Whatever it is, do it today, Tomorrow may not be an option and regret outlasts fatigue.
