SHOP HOW TO – Build Your Own Press Brake Louver Press

Louvers are one of those OG hot rod mods that have never gone out of style. They have been put on everything known to man, and there are lots of shapes and styles as well. In this video you are going to learn how to make your own louver jig for a press brake and see how it is used on this bitchin hood. This is cool stuff.

Video Description:

In this episode, we fabricate a special jig to suit our louver dies. We modify them to recreate (or) compliment an early ‘Clam Shell’ style louver used in the early 1950s. After polishing the hood and sides of the ‘Midnight Special,’ we are happy with the result.
