How to Use a Box and Pan Brake!

The Brake is one of my favorite sheet metal tools! With it, we take flat boring pieces of sheet metal and turn them into 3D shapes! This style of brake is designed to make boxes and pans, hence the name. They vary in ability in many ways- angle of bend, radius of bend, thickness of metal, and length to name a few.

This video explains how to set up and use the Brake.
