Here’s Part 2 of the cool DIY Hydraulic Press Brake. Keep in mind, this isn’t just a simple press brake. It’s got automation, production capabilities, and more but it’s a DIY project you can do at home. Check it out and if you missed the first video there is a link to that down below.
I’ve never owned a sheet metal brake, but I’ve always wanted one. But even more than a sheet metal brake, I’d like a hydraulic press brake so I can bend my own brackets and such. I’ve thought a lot about building a new hydraulic press for the new shop, so when I saw this one come up I had to check it out. And it’s way more trick than I was thinking about, but I sure do like it. Take a look and let us know what you think. This is Part 2, and we’ll be bringing the rest to you as well.
