I bent the breakes on the bed of my truck with the two cresent wrench method and have used that way for years, 16 Ga, bends nice, and easy.
However I bend alot of other stuff all the time and use two other small breaks.
But I couldn't pass up the HF one the other day, 169.00, used a 15% off cupon, and bought it for 145.00
It seems to be okay, It is supposidly rated for 16ga, but seems a little light. I think it will work fine, as long as I don't get carried away and over load it. The good news is if I need to make it a little heavier, I can.
I have another one I built with hindges, that cranks pretty well, but seems to round the corners a bit.
