    Here is our home built DIY press break that we built to handle all of our all of our bending needs in our shop. This build took us two weeks to cut and build. We use this machine every single day in our shop in bending products for our customers.

    Great job - the rack idea is pure genius !

    really great build quality , i especially like the use of a rack and pinion for absolute mechanical synchronisation.

    Nice build. When I first saw video I thought not another hack but the thought, workmanship in a limited workshop and use of full size practice is impressive 👍

    Nice machine I made my own as well with a 30t bottle jack 1m wide and made it mobile on wheels and it's defo a handy thing to have around 👍

    Well done neat job i made 1 out or h beams with a bolt at each end for stops but needs something like your rack to keep it parallel thats for the ideas 👍

    I want to know how much all of the accessories costs to build.

    Thank you for the thoughtful design and thorough explaining. Have you considered getting some rust inhibitor spray for all the raw steel parts? It makes me a little sad to see such a workhorse covered in flash rust.

      We actually painted the press, and gun blued all the dies recently. Much better.

    How are the hydraulic cylindres synchronized to ensure the ram action is always level (ie one side doesn't go lower than the other if you have uneven load like using a side instead of the center for a bend) ?

    This thing looks incredible. Any chance of some smaller sizes being available in the future?

    • @danielchaffee5971
      @danielchaffee5971 Před 8 měsíci

      Unfortunately no. I made this one out of necessity, so I probably won’t design another. But it probably wouldn’t be too difficult to rescale the files..

  • @camcutcnc
    @camcutcnc Před 8 měsíci +1

    Hi, in a previous post you mentioned adjusting the flow rate for bending speed. How is this accomplished ? Also where did you source your 4 way lower die ? Thanks ! Nice build !!

    • @danielchaffee5971
      @danielchaffee5971 Před 8 měsíci

      My pump has a flow adjustment screw in the valve body. I find my 4 way from an EBay seller, who happened to be local to me.

    What size pump and motor are you using?

  • @ericsego4243
    @ericsego4243 Před 8 měsíci +1

    Great job! Exactly what I need in my life. What would be needed to bend .25” MS? Or no problem?

    • @danielchaffee5971
      @danielchaffee5971 Před 8 měsíci +1

      I can bend about 3’ of 1/4” using a 2” lower V. Using a wider lower V will allow me to bend more length.

    Me gusta la prensa. ¿ cuánto cuestan los planos ? ¿ cómo hago para abonarte el dinero ?

  • @davidmitchell5638
    @davidmitchell5638 Před 8 měsíci +1

    I usually bend thin metal. I want to know how quick it is going doing and up again?

    • @danielchaffee5971
      @danielchaffee5971 Před 8 měsíci +1

      It’s not too bad. It takes about 30 seconds to completely cycle. I adjusted the flow rate to what was comfortable for me while bending. Too slow and it gets boring, too fast and it’s hard to hit specific bend degrees.
