Flip-R5
Photo Etched Bending ToolThis tool works by the same principle as the hinged bending brakes that can be found in many metal workshops around the world. The photoetched parts are held in place between the base and the bending attachment, then they are bent by pivoting the hinged bending plate. The tool can also be used in the more traditional manner whereby the bending plate is used as a blade to bend the parts.
The tool is made from stainless steel and can be easily stored in your toolbox.
The tool comes flat packed and some minor assembly is required.
The office clamps depicted in the pictures are not included in the package, but they can be obtained cheaply from any local office supplier. For most usual bends, finger pressure is enough to hold the parts in place.
