Andy, what did that press brake cost and what brand is it? I am looking at a 60 ton for some home projects! I have a 4 foot Diacro press brake. It is about 50 years old. You can find them on ebay for $3000 to $5000 depending on condition. I think they are like old pickup trucks. The value just stays constant year after year since there are always people who want those old press brakes.

Is this something your going to produce? If so, sign me up. I'm not sure. I made one for myself and I had some extra blanks cut out so I could make more. But, the first one was a lot of work and it didn't come out looking like something I could sell so back to the drawing board. I'm working with the guys at US Car Tool on some of these tools so if there is something that you really want or need then give them a call.
