Metal Bending Press
Here are the plans for you to build your own metal bending press. I have always worked in my garage and have needed metal bent on different projects and always had to find a way to get it done. Well final I decided to build my own and since then I have found several thing I would like to have and decided that I could build it myself and save some
money in the process.
I have even built my own motorcycle wheel chalk which saved me over $100.00. This is a handy item to have around. I have bent flat plate cold roll steel 5/16” thick up to 2” wide and ¼” thick
up to 3” wide.
Below is a picture of the wheel chalk I built.

First we are going to cut all the material needed and then we need to clean all the edges for safety purposes. Once we have them cut and cleaned we need to be sure we mark them as
per the material list. This will make it easier to work with.
Next we will start by preparing the materials, trimming, measuring and drilling the holes.
First take the two pieces marked “B”. We are going to trim off the top corners Measure over and down ½” and mark Now connect these two marks and this is the area you trim off.
Now we need to get the piece marked “B-1” - 2” X ¼” X 10” Long. Lay it
up from the bottom 1” and mark at each end. Now measure in 2” from both ends and mark. You now have your two center marks for your holes.

Drill the two 5/16” holes through.
You may need to clean around the holes you drill. Lay this piece aside.
Now we need the pieces marked “D” & “E” Lay them out as shown. “D” will lay cradled inside the angle as shown and you will weld at the top on each end and also along the
bottom seam.

Drill two 5/16” holes through as
shown here.
Now take the pieces marked “H” & “I” You need to place “I” in the center of “H” in both directions. Yours may vary depending on the size die you want. On this one you would set it 1” up from the bottom and 1-1/2” in on each end.

Now that “I” is in place you need to weld it to “H”. Weld it on both sides
as shown in the photo below.

Now we need to Measure for the two
5/16” holes. You measure from outside edge to outside edge as
shown in the photo below. Measure up from the bottom 1-1/8” on each end and mark. Next measure over 1” from each end and mark. This give you the center marks for drilling your holes
Drill the two 5/16” holes through.
Set this piece aside.
Now that we have all the part prepped and ready we are going to start putting the
base together.

Take the two pieces marked “A” you will need to measure and mark over 2” on both the “A” pieces. Now take the piece marked “B-1” and place it as it shows in this photo. (We used welding magnets to hold in place). Spot weld “B-1” to “A” and check
to be sure it is square.
When it is weld it in place on the
top and bottom.

Take the remaining piece “B” and place it just as you did the first one. The notches down and 3/8” in and weld in place.

Get two of the pieces marked “C” you are going to need two C-clamps to hold them in place. Place them on the outside at the top. One in the back and one in the
front, of “A” as shown. (like a
sandwich)
They should be flush with the tops of “A” and “B” and also flush with the sides
of “A”.
Weld around as shown here. On the front and on the back.

with “A”.
Making it flush in the front will mean it is not flush in the back there is about ¼” overhang shown here in this photo. Now that it is squared
and level weld it in place.

Now put your 12 Ton Hydraulic Bottle Jack in place and you are finished. You can take the remove the bottle jack and the springs and bolts or tape them off and paint
your New Press.
This is just to show you how it bends
this ¼” flat stock. I hope you have enjoyed making yours as I did. I have made several different items with mine. A few things I have saved a great deal
of paying retail prices. Thank you for purchasing these plans I hope you have
