Fortunately, being made of sterner stuff than the tarmac it landed on, no damage was done! --- End quote --- :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: |

Ade, you're a braver man than I taking on that colinder of a car :bugeye: Amusing to see that you have the same folder - good aren't they ! Was using mine yesterday to replace some covers on a "Post-Ogg" stock fence post pusher |
| vtsteam:
Oh, click! Thanks Adev. I like the term "metal folder" better than "brake". Much more descriptive and less confusing in an automotive context! :beer: |
| DavidA:
VT, A folder and a brake are really two different things. The folder is as depicted and works, as you probably know, by 'pushing' the metal over with it's rotating edge. The brake, more correctly known as a press brake, creates the bend by pushing the metal down into a groove or angle. Each has it's advantages. Dave. |

Sorry, didn't know David -- I'm not an experienced sheet metal guy, except with an inappropriate hammer! . . .thanks for straightening me out! So to speak........ |
