If interested in how to DIY common metal trims on a brake, or how it works, then watch on! I get a lot of questions about how we bend or if we bend our metal. We try not to have to bend our trims, but occasionally need custom details here and there. Let me know if you would lie more detail videos on this process or what trims you are curious about and maybe I can do a more in depth how to video.

Thank You! I'm renting a brake tomorrow. Your first tip upfront about unrolling the aluminum from within the box, alone, made the video worthy. I was already concerned about the headache of dealing with the 50 ft roll of aluminum. That said, the entire video was exactly what I needed! Thanks for taking the time to make it!

Two tips if you’re renting a break… 1) adjust the tension correctly before you start work. Figure out the brand and you can get instructions online. Tension has to be tight enough and EVEN, otherwise your pieces will creep when bending, ruining the piece 2) CLEAN the inside of the jaws and the hinge. The clowns who rent those breaks will leave them full of aluminum chips from cutting that will scratch the hell out of your coil stock, again ruining it.

It is a very good book for beginners as well as for those that are already into ru-vid.comUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt A very good basic ebook to keep as a reference too. I like it and the way the subject matter is presented. It has humor and that helps with the reading.

What a beautifully done ru-vid.comUgkxYGamVaHfdHiPlAQaLa7zkwR02OKpGYDU ! The instructions and the photographs are brilliant. It is thorough and genuinely informative. Ryan got another winner! No one does it better!

In 2009 we didn't have enough fence work,so I installed vinyl siding. I bent all the fascia,rolled a profile with a van Mark. The one I always struggled with was the birdbox ,where the gable fascia meets soffit,and lower fascia. One important thing to note,a hem in addition to being stronger..also will not slice your hands !

@jesshernandez187 2 года назад

2 years of experience on a cnc press brake and im amazed what you can do with this brake, i look forward to getting one for a business idea soon. Good stuff brother.

@Realism91 Год назад

A magnetic digital angle gauge can increase speed and accuracy and help muscle memory for specific angles. Never seen anyone else do it.

@phillypauly 2 года назад

I have been looking for a simple break demo on YT for years and I am so glad I didn't give up. Like everything you do, it's done right and explained well

@orionsmith7668 5 лет назад

I think this video is priceless for someone with a brake and doing construction. Thanks, well done!

@artthuroster4813 20 дней назад

This is the most helpful video I have found on using a metal brake. Thank you for the very detailed explainations

@trentonclark2582 2 года назад

If you only do a half bend after scoring it takes a few more up & down movements on the metal to separate but you will have a clean edge on both pieces of metal. Also whatever side of metal you score will leave a shiny edge where the paint was removed. You can flip the metal & cut the back side so the finished side has a perfect edge if the edge will be exposed. Love the videos!

@michaelmartin9618 5 лет назад

Very nice brake! That was one of those “right place at the right time” moments when you bought that puppy. Thanks for the vid!

@elsasolomon3572 2 года назад

Awesome tutorial! Thank you. We are beginners. We are going to use our brake for the first time today. We have a 50' roll...wondered how to get out the 7' pieces we need - great tip! Also, nice info on how to cut to the desired widths! We don't have that nifty slitter that you have...so hand scoring will have to work for now! Thank you again - best tutorial I've seen!

@thelegendaryruss 4 года назад

Great video!! One of the most comprehensive DIY vids I’ve seen in a long time. I appreciate that you’re not a bumbling dummy!!

That cutter that slides on the break was the coolest thing. Mind blown.

@garylang3379 2 года назад

Thanks for the video , just a few months into using a brake for aluminum , loved the tips and tricks , especially the box !! Had 50 feet uncoil on me the other day , and i almost had a meltdown , lol

@joselacera8716 5 лет назад

thank you sir for this video and the help that you are showing to score the aluminum with the utility knife. I used to use that method on the metal frame I told a guy from peru that you can scored the metal and you snip the sides and bended back and forward and it will cut a straight line and a colombian guy was the boss and they fired me because I told them that you can do that and after 15 years I can see that someone else do this thank you again

@vicall67 2 года назад

This is really helpful. I needed to re-cover columns on my porch and saved money by renting a brake and doing it myself. Not something I've ever done. Your video was the best I could find and allowed me to do the work myself.

@Realism91 Год назад

You can use a digital angle gauge on your phone in combined with a magnetic digital angle gauge stuck to the bender to get dead on angles, in most cases you don't need this much accuracy though but it's a cheap add-on.

@douglasthompson2740 5 лет назад

@frankblack7954 3 года назад

I doubt anyone will dispute the fact that you’re a master bender. Great demonstration, the tip on getting the metal out the box without it getting out of control you gave in the beginning was great, although you never mentioned how to easily cut it to length and what is best to cut it with...

@AlexAbba 3 года назад

Good work. Thanks for your wisdom. Just got my Tapco Pro 19 and it would be my first time-bending.

@bryonweatherford1772 5 лет назад

Kyle, I have used coil stock and break to make trim to cover the moulding on walk in doors to have a maintenance free trim. I have also seen it used to make a simple square to cover the posts that are exposed under a porch roof.

Awesome video bro. I too love using the brake. Whenever you do vinyl siding the guys always give me the job of working the brake because of my aptitude with it and how quick I am on it They don't call me kevy metal for nothing! But definitely learned a couple of Tricks here that I didn't know

You can use a angle gauge on your phone, then use a magnetic digital angle gauge on the bender to get any slope right on.

@mehrunesrazor4604 4 года назад

If you dont fully bend the aluminum after you score it with the razor it wont roll the edge. So basically only bend it around 15° first then work it back down and repeat that a few times it'll usually give you a crisper edge. But the splitter is the way to go if you can afford it like you said. Great vids man. Btw that brake is absolutely massive lmao

@gearhead4526 5 лет назад

If you want the crease in your hem tighter or more flat you can also put the hem in the clamp side of your brake and clamp it. Works great and really flattens out that him if you need it to be completely flat. A word of caution, if you do it frequently you will have to adjust your brake more often.

@syedhussain3810 3 года назад

@brandonbrown2533 3 года назад

@1amaker 5 лет назад

We always use a few 2x12s on saw horses behind the brake as a layout table. And to stop the coil from unrolling we use a spring clamp on the roll to keep it intact.
