Make sheet metal brake
I saw a post of making a sheet metal break and the person used two pieces of channel iron with the henges on the outer ends of the channel.
I saved the post but must have deleated it by mistake.
Anyone remember seeing it?
I've seen 4 or 5 others but cannot find the channel iron one.

Dave,
Thanks a lot with the plans you posted and the metal brake could not be more simple.
By the way, how is the plane coming or do you use this on lots of them?
I've come close to building a small plane over the years but reached the age I finally gave it up.
In the old days when ultralites were being built my business built lots of VW engines for these projects but now that is a thing of the past.
