Continued work on the sheet metal brake. Fabricated handle out of two 6 ft pieces of 1.25" x 1.25" x 1/8" angle iron. Cut peices with side grinder with a cut off wheel. Debured with a wire wheel in a bench grinder. Drilled bolt holes and debured. Assembled wirh 1/4" bolts, flat washers and stop nuts.
Next will be reinforcing the bench top and mounting the brake. Then it will be time to practice using it, then on to creating the "basic shapes" from the plans.
