New technologies are blurring the lines between CAD/CAM software and equipment to overcome training gaps, enabling more manufacturers to enter sheet metal fabrication. However, even with this ...

While applications vary by industry, quality metal fabrication conforms to several basic rules and requires fundamental processes. While there are many bending solutions and strategies, nothing can ...

If you want to bend metal to make shapes, you might use equipment like a brake. But if you don’t have one, no worries. You can still do a lot with common tools like a vise and torches. [Bwrussell] ...

In this video, I demonstrate how to create a homemade sheet metal bending tool designed for small fabrication projects. This tool is intended for use with thin metal sheets and is ideal for custom ...
