It is very well made and I love the "slasher" style artwork!!! This has quickly turned into my favorite tool in my shop! I highly recommend "The Machete"!!!

Great for small stuff

Not sure what the recommended limitations are.. but it'll bend 1.5x.25 steel flat bar happily without heat. Also up to 2x.25 aluminum flat bar with a little bit if preheat. This is without worrying about hurting the "bending pins" at least, I'm sure it'll do more with heat. Awesome product, makes quick work out of anything within reason!

Great bender for flat rails

Bought this to fab metal braces for my wife’s. Expensive dining room chairs. They kept pulling apart and breaking. Was able to use metal Strong slats from Home Depot, bend them to reinforce the corners of the chairs. Solved the problem and easy to use. First time I have used a metal bending gig , worked great, inexpensive and got the job done
