This is going to be my next big tool purchase. It is limited to the size of metal I can bend on it but in many cases I do not need to replace door jambs. In the cases where i must, I'll continue to use my good friend Steve's 14 foot hand brake at Hemet Valley RV and Siding. There are many other uses for this smaller brake so it's a must have for me. www.harborfreight.com/36-in-metal-brake-with-stand-62518.html |

I think it will prove very useful to you.

Looks like a guillotene. Maybe for all the flippers out there?

I promise I did not show this thread to my husband and this morning he had a tool ad paper in his hand and said, "Hey, look at this, you need one of these." ^^^^
He acts like he doesn't appreciate my hobby but he keeps buying me stuff. Felt sorry for me because my sand blaster was stolen so bought me a new one before Christmas and I didn't even ask for it. I just want a small one do little things neatly. I have a close family member who uses a BIG one at his job, so I figure if I ever need to, I'll just tap that resource.

Years ago I bought a cheap 30 inch hand brake from HF. I've used it many times. Great tool

I rent from Home Depot Rentals because of space issues. It's 8' long which is too much space for a tool I use a few days a year but when you need one, you really need it. |
