Very nice product!

I purchased the kit version of this to help build some suspension brackets and skid plates for my '65 Mustang project. I'm just a home garage hack but having nice quality HD tools is a godsend when trying to do fabrication. The kit was very easy to assemble and I actually quite enjoyed the process. The instructions were thorough and the entire process went very smoothly. I used my TIG to make sure that the welds were nice and tight and stayed clear of the ares they weren't supposed to be. Overall effectiveness as a tool is great and it bends the 1/8" steel (4" x 4") that I'm working right now like butter. Very pleased with my purchase. I also picked up the recommended arbor plates which are also very nice.

legend in my own mind, LoL

So pulled the trigger on the swag finger break kit, was a delight to weld up used the TIG torch on it for extra enjoyment, everything appears to be laser cut or machined so I didn't need to touch anything with a grinder, not bad for 250 bux and seems like it might be $100 to put the kit together so its not all profit and would be hard to build without a milling machine to face the edges and tapers , lady at the post office complained about the excellent use of a flat rate box as she delivered a dolly to me !! bends just over 90 degrees basically does what they say it does, good for any one doing custom work......

Job shop

Needed a way to jump over bends in brkt making, this tool helped me achieve that goal plus another tool added to my shop press arsenal.

Great purchase. I don't write reviews, and I don't participate in surveys. I will review the SWAG 20 Ton finger Brake kit. Easy to assemble, you don't even have to be a great welder. I'm an old pro, boilermaker to be exact, but anyone that can get the bright, hot end of the weld-thingy to go can do this. Bought the knobs for the jack and the angle-finder also. Perfect. switched the press over to Pneumatic-over ( H-F) and the overall result is excellent. Grandson and I test-flew the rig putting new sheet metal on his off-road Kart. He's smiling.

Recommend This!

This is the best product I could find in the affordable price point. I don't bend a lot of plate but when I do, this product does a MUCH better job than hammering it over my bench vise. I already had the press so this attachment fit right in. I opted for the Fully Welded version just to make it easier for me and the welds are very nice. I also looked at the same product on other websites and everyone charged for shipping, I bought it here with Free Shipping!

Nice little setup - a bit of false advertising

This is a nice little setup to get a press brake capability using an inexpensive Harbor Freight press. Seems to work pretty well. My biggest complaint is that I expected to receive a "Fully Welded Ready To Go Out Of The Box" assembly. Instead I received an assembly that still needed some welding to complete it. I don't have a good welder handy which is the whole reason I paid the extra $$ for a "fully welded assembly".

press brake

New user all the tools are hd. Now i have to figure out all that i can do. This is related to operator use but i find it difficult to figure the measurement of the radius bend. Only suggestion i have would be the dies where cut apart. I did make an radiator over flow tank out of aluminum that turned out nice for a rookie.
