SWAG 20 TON Press Brake DIY Builder Kit

Quickly found this brake kit when I started researching the Harbor Freight 20 ton press. I decided I had to have it. Couldn't be happier with the kit. Well thought out. Made for a good welding project and turned out great. Did have a little bow in the bottom dye after welding but that is easy to correct when you have a 20 ton press. I give it a 2 thumbs up. Oh, and the Swag off road sticker that you sent me with the kit is proudly displayed on the front of the press. Took all of the weinie Harbor Freight stickers off. Thanks again.

Easy to follow directions and works well

I considered trying to source the parts separately but it would’ve cost twice as much and I’d have to do all the designing. I opted for the DIY kit after watching the how-to video. It was straightforward and the included color instructions were clear to follow as well. I’ve already used it to make the bends on a push bumper with 10 gauge steel, no issues at all, nice clean bends.

Assembly instructions are good, assembly went very easy, if you have a welder and a press. Well built, works good, and they had very good shipping. 5310

Got the shipment fast. Welded it together in a couple of hours, taking my time. Great addition to my shop equipment.

I have been interested in fab work for some time now and part of that is the production of items with bends. In the past I used the "Heat and Beat" method of fabrication, or I welded two pieces into a bracket. Not anymore. I got the Press Brake and found the pieces well manufactured. Assemble was straight forward and easy to accomplish. With good clean welds (Mine are anything but.) the item turns out looking great. It works as good as it looks and with the addition of an air over hydraulic jack to my press I have one very good machine that will be a good addition to my fab tooling and will be useful for years too come. If your thinking about making the purchase, don't hesitate. Catch the press on sale, buy this for what is a great prices and you'll have a tool you wouldn't trade for anything.

This is a very nice product, It went together seamlessly and was very easy to build using the included instructions. I have bent a few things around my garage and it works effortlessly. I would recommend it to anyone who even thinks that they will need to bend some stuff up.

Pretty easy to assemble and seems to do what I want.
