KATSU Manual Sheet Metal Bending Folding Machine Bender 1000mm Metalworking Workshop Hand Brake Folder, Suitable for 1.2mm Thickness Steel Sheet, 0-130° Bending Angle

I was not expecting much because of some bad reviews, but I was pleasantly surprised, this is a very strong bender packaged very well in a wooden box, and I can't see why other reviews say it can't bend 1000mm, unless the model has been changed. because it will bend 1000mm no problem. Yes you might have to fettle the odd bit and I had to re tap a hole but if you need this sort of machine that would not be a problem to you.For the money and if you need a long bender I do not think you could beat this one.I will certainly be purchasing more from this seller as the machines they sell are a lot cheaper than there rivals

Supposed to fold up to 1 mtr wide. This can only be done on a 25 mm fold. Any longer it only folds 900 mm wide.

This item is great value for money it's very well engineered, there may be better machines out there but for the cost this beats them hands down. My only criticism is that if you wish to fasten it to your bench the mounting holes are very close to the edge of the bench. Not much of an issue if you're using a metal bench but mine is wood and I envisioned the folder trying to flex backwards and damage the bench , I solved this by fastening a bracket to the tab used for mounting in the vice and screwing it to the bench at the back.
