Good Morning:
I have several Model Railroad Warehouse kits to build. They
consist of sheets of etched brass that I need to bend. I fear my
current tools are inadequate to do the 90 degree bends for the cab.
Each corner of the cab is beside pre-cut windows.
I measured the sheets with a micrometer. The frame is 0.032
inches thick, The cab walls and cab roof are 0.015. Where the bends are
to be done, the brass sheet has been etched to about half its measured
thickness. The longest bend I need help with is a little under 2
inches. I can bend the frame with my current tools: a good, small vice.
It's the cab that needs help.
Would the MicroMart Mini Bending Brake
(http://www.ares-server.com/Ares/Ares.asp?MerchantID=RET01229&Action=Cat
alog&Type=Product&ID=16101) be a good choice?
Any other tips you might have before I damage the first one?
Thanks!
