- If interested in how to DIY common metal trims on a brake, or how it works, then watch on! I get a lot of questions about how we bend or if we bend our metal. We try not to have to bend our trims, but occasionally need custom details here and there. Let me know if you would lie more detail videos on this process or what trims you are curious about and maybe I can do a more in depth how to video.

This is the most helpful video I have found on using a metal brake. Thank you for the very detailed explainations
It is a very good book for beginners as well as for those that are already into czcams.com/users/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt A very good basic ebook to keep as a reference too. I like it and the way the subject matter is presented. It has humor and that helps with the reading.
Thank You! I'm renting a brake tomorrow. Your first tip upfront about unrolling the aluminum from within the box, alone, made the video worthy. I was already concerned about the headache of dealing with the 50 ft roll of aluminum. That said, the entire video was exactly what I needed! Thanks for taking the time to make it!

Two tips if you’re renting a break… 1) adjust the tension correctly before you start work. Figure out the brand and you can get instructions online. Tension has to be tight enough and EVEN, otherwise your pieces will creep when bending, ruining the piece 2) CLEAN the inside of the jaws and the hinge. The clowns who rent those breaks will leave them full of aluminum chips from cutting that will scratch the hell out of your coil stock, again ruining it.

What a beautifully done czcams.com/users/postUgkxYGamVaHfdHiPlAQaLa7zkwR02OKpGYDU ! The instructions and the photographs are brilliant. It is thorough and genuinely informative. Ryan got another winner! No one does it better!
Hands down the best builder on the internet making the best videos for others to learn from. Thankyou sir!
In 2009 we didn't have enough fence work,so I installed vinyl siding.
I bent all the fascia,rolled a profile with a van Mark.
The one I always struggled with was the birdbox ,where the gable fascia meets soffit,and lower fascia.
One important thing to note,a hem in addition to being stronger..also will not slice your hands !
I have been looking for a simple break demo on YT for years and I am so glad I didn't give up. Like everything you do, it's done right and explained well
I think this video is priceless for someone with a brake and doing construction. Thanks, well done!
2 years of experience on a cnc press brake and im amazed what you can do with this brake, i look forward to getting one for a business idea soon. Good stuff brother.
A magnetic digital angle gauge can increase speed and accuracy and help muscle memory for specific angles. Never seen anyone else do it.
If you only do a half bend after scoring it takes a few more up & down movements on the metal to separate but you will have a clean edge on both pieces of metal. Also whatever side of metal you score will leave a shiny edge where the paint was removed. You can flip the metal & cut the back side so the finished side has a perfect edge if the edge will be exposed. Love the videos!
Very nice brake! That was one of those “right place at the right time” moments when you bought that puppy. Thanks for the vid!
Awesome tutorial! Thank you. We are beginners. We are going to use our brake for the first time today. We have a 50' roll...wondered how to get out the 7' pieces we need - great tip! Also, nice info on how to cut to the desired widths! We don't have that nifty slitter that you have...so hand scoring will have to work for now! Thank you again - best tutorial I've seen!
Great video!! One of the most comprehensive DIY vids I’ve seen in a long time. I appreciate that you’re not a bumbling dummy!!
I’ve listened to this every job getting used to custom flashing. Good works all around much appreciated
This was just like shop-class. I bought a small brake yesterday. I won't even tell you how I was trying to hem the metal. Thanks man.
I've seen most of your videos and now stumbled on this one. You're an exceptional teacher and I'm a fan! thank you
Man...Kyle, I wanna be like you! Thx for the videos. Love the shop!
Thanks for sharing your hard earned knowledge Kyle. Always interesting.
Great explanation Kyle. Thank you. Never used a brake , now I know how to . I needed a corner bend for a job I am doing tomorrow and I learned a lot about bending trim.
Very well done video with perfect picture clarity. This is the best CZcams instruction on this topic. Learned a lot.
Omg! That coil dispenser trick is priceless! Wish I saw this a few could ago! I'm the type that overlooks the simple ideas.. thanks
Agreed!!!!
Nice, been on the lookout for a brake at the right price for a couple years. You got a killer deal!
I appreciate the video. I haven't used a brake in 16 years so its a nice refresher.
thank you sir for this video and the help that you are showing to score the aluminum with the utility knife. I used to use that method on the metal frame I told a guy from peru that you can scored the metal and you snip the sides and bended back and forward and it will cut a straight line and a colombian guy was the boss and they fired me because I told them that you can do that and after 15 years I can see that someone else do this thank you again
Thanks for the video , just a few months into using a brake for aluminum , loved the tips and tricks , especially the box !! Had 50 feet uncoil on me the other day , and i almost had a meltdown , lol
That cutter that slides on the break was the coolest thing. Mind blown.
Yeah buddy. Makes it effortless and perfect
That thing is bad ass
I haven't used a brake in years. Great refresher video and confidence builder. The coil box tip is working smarter not harder! Thanks!
Be careful I seen 2 guys pinch there fingers off
I really like all your videos man. Especially the build ones. You’ve inspired me to start a build series on our home.
Thanks for the really informative and helpful tutorial. I just bought my first brake this evening and start using it for a simple job tomorrow. Great video!
You can use a digital angle gauge on your phone in combined with a magnetic digital angle gauge stuck to the bender to get dead on angles, in most cases you don't need this much accuracy though but it's a cheap add-on.
I never use one, however I always want to know how to, you were good enough for my education. You were honest about how much you know.You shared what you have learned. You are very clear in the presentation.
Really enjoyed, thanks. BTW, a good source for aluminum roll material is the seamless gutter guys. A bazillion colors too.
Best toolsday to date. I could watch this kind of stuff all day. Nice work sir.
Thanks Mitch
Bad to the bone Jr. Great skills. Great presentation. Thank you sir.
I have zero reason to ever use this in my business.. I just enjoy watching your videos and I.G. feed so thank you for sharing but....how is this so hypnotic to watch haha. Extremely talented. I envy your ability in all you do in construction.
Thanks Darren I appreciate that
This is really helpful. I needed to re-cover columns on my porch and saved money by renting a brake and doing it myself. Not something I've ever done. Your video was the best I could find and allowed me to do the work myself.
Awesome video. I was on the fence about renting a metal brake and doing it myself but this video definitely persuaded me
Really useful video for a person just getting into bending metal. Thanks for making the video.
I doubt anyone will dispute the fact that you’re a master bender. Great demonstration, the tip on getting the metal out the box without it getting out of control you gave in the beginning was great, although you never mentioned how to easily cut it to length and what is best to cut it with...
Good work. Thanks for your wisdom. Just got my Tapco Pro 19 and it would be my first time-bending.
Very nice demo. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and technique.
Great video, very helpful tricks, especially the coil dispenser !!!
Great video. Bright and sharp video quality makes such a difference.
Thanks kyle! Im sure videos like this are a ton of work. I really appreciate the info.
Awesome video bro. I too love using the brake. Whenever you do vinyl siding the guys always give me the job of working the brake because of my aptitude with it and how quick I am on it They don't call me kevy metal for nothing! But definitely learned a couple of Tricks here that I didn't know
best video yet. love the tip with the box
Solid tip on the coil. Much appreciated 🙏
First time braker here. The box trick will help a lot!
Thanks for the very informative video. Just got a small finger brake (30") more for brackets and pans but this is very interesting. Take care. Doug
THANKS For your time i got my first break yesterday . They have one at the shop but someone runs it. THANKS AGAIN
Kyle, I have used coil stock and break to make trim to cover the moulding on walk in doors to have a maintenance free trim. I have also seen it used to make a simple square to cover the posts that are exposed under a porch roof.
Thanks for the lesson sir you have open a part of my brain that's going to help me in the future much respect thanks again 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
That was awesome... you make it look so easy.
I think a toolsday video based around your machinery would be pretty cool. Just putting a bug in your ear, keep up the great videos.
Epic stuff! I'm an installer and watching up close, that is some untapped creativity waiting to be priceless on custom homes. Thanks for the insight of breaking trim. Great video
i dont mean to be offtopic but does anybody know a method to get back into an instagram account..?
I stupidly lost the account password. I love any tricks you can give me!
@Ira Christian instablaster =)
@Judson Brian thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and Im trying it out atm.
Seems to take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Judson Brian it worked and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my ass !
@Ira Christian glad I could help =)
Okay Boss, let's see you make a cube (any size) with one piece of aluminum and the brake. Enjoying the videos and look forward to the finish of the man cave.
speachless, you, good sir, are at another level! hat off
Great work and thanks for showing us all the tricks God continue to bless you boss.👍👍👍
Thanks for the tips kyle. Fantastic explain bro
Thank you so much! This made my project so much easier.
Thank you
I am building my own garage and this was very helpful
First time working with metal
Thanks for the info Kyle! 👍🏻👊🏻
Awesome work!! Fascia bends are great.
Such an amazingly helpful video. Thanks a lot for making this one!
For some reason I've always been intimidated to do this, but this video made it look so simple, very interesting
Very good instructor, thanks for the basics.
Wow, that box trick is awesome!
Awesome tutorial! You're a great teacher, well done sir!
This is really great info and demonstration. Excellent
That coil trick helped me for sure
Absolutely love your stuff man keep it coming
Best channel on CZcams! Thanks for all the great content!
Excellent video!!! Thanks for sharing!!
Great camera work. My break has paid for it self many times over. Must have piece of equipment
Great video. Always wondered how a brake works.
Love it!! Thank you for sharing!!
Very encouraging video to all DIY. Your last work was great. I've a VanMark 12' and I make her scream down in the basement!
That’s a super nice setup!
Great video. I have a lot of custom trim to do on my silo house build and am looking to get a break.
I used to do the box trick. Tapco sidewinder is a worthwhile purchase.
Great video. Always had trouble doing bends. you make it so easy. Expertance shows. the hardest bends are the ones that have to be custom, used art boaed for the patterns. Thanks for the visual references.
You can use a angle gauge on your phone, then use a magnetic digital angle gauge on the bender to get any slope right on.
That’s awesome man this is exactly what I do every day love watching how other people do there work
Do you know any way a handyman without that device can do the same?.
Awesome tutorial, THANK YOU
Dude as always totally awesome!!
Hemming the edges takes the quality up to a whole new level. You won't find that stocked at the big box stores. 👍🏻
Man I never thought to put a hem at the top of the facia metal to avoid wrinkles . Thanks for the video
Awesome job!!! thanks for the video!
Great video! Pretty cool how you can do a radius on a break.
Yeah it’s a cool trick... not perfect but looks pretty good
Very nice craftmanship
Really wish I saw this earlier, very much appreciated
Very cool tricks, thanks.
excellent.
I traded for a brake, to make my own trim. I feel way more confident I can do this now.
Great video and great find on that break.🇵🇱🇺🇸
Wow very nice work
Thanks for the great video!
Thanks so much trim can be intimidating great video..
Great show 👍👏👏👏👏👏
i love your video so much, thanks for all the little tips like how to dispensing the material from the box... thank you
please keep making more video, is so awesome to learn specially for people like me new to the world of home improvement ..
Great tip. Doing this for 12 years i didnt know how to cut he coil box to used as a metal dispenser
If you dont fully bend the aluminum after you score it with the razor it wont roll the edge. So basically only bend it around 15° first then work it back down and repeat that a few times it'll usually give you a crisper edge. But the splitter is the way to go if you can afford it like you said. Great vids man. Btw that brake is absolutely massive lmao
Another Great informative Video !
