Bending Accessory

| The bending jig for the 20-ton shop press |
This accessory normally rests on the floor behind the press. Caution! Weight is about 60 lbs.
It is constructed over a piece of 3" x 3" x 5/16" angle, so the bends it makes are distributed through about 4" of length. To tighten up the bend radius, stack pieces of smaller angle inside the large one.
