confused dot thick

[Iain Westland]

I work mainly with 20-16G steel,I want a bender like the one in the pick but they never seem to go anywhere near the size I need. Am I missing something here? any ideas of any where else I could get these? just want to put sill bends in etc, can form ok with the hands so cant understand these max sizes

As with all metalworking kit increasing the capacity of the machine results in something exponentially bigger/heavier and more expensive. Your best bet is probably used machinery dealers/auctions- get a real set of slip rolls instead of a toy .

Those Warco rollers are only 0.8mm capacity too. Something that'll cope with 16swg is considerably larger and heavier
