I want to bend a 12 inch strip into a right angle with each leg being 6 inches. Does the 1-3/4" box depth limit prevent this? Thanks.

I agree with Seth. The only difficulty I have run into, in respect to box depth, is with multiple bends. Where you are trying to make a second or third bend that is too close to the first and you can't get the piece into the brake, because the bends before it, prevents you from getting your piece into position. But this is a problem with any brake of this kind.

Not really sure what you mean but if you are trying to form an "L" with 6" legs, it should be no problem. You would be limited to the width of the brake so you are limited to 24" width.

No, the depth limit is how much support you have while bending up. The material length is not limited, the width and the Guage (thickness) is very limited. This handbrake is for hobbyists. I don't recommend this for a machine shop.

There is a foot on the bottom of the leg that has a hole in it for the tie stake. That foot is 12 or 14 gauge material. It does not bend that I have encountered. The 1 inch square leg is welded to the back of the foot so only material sticks out toward the front. The foot is kind of heart shaped.

No problem on 1/2" plywood. Fully adjustable for wood thickness, plate size, and angle. This is a professional grade plate joiner.

Sorry, I can't help w/ an actual answer. It is bendable since it is silicon. The wide part is probably almost 2 inches across, but that does not mean it should be used on a gap that wide. My space is just a couple centimeters, I would think you could go wider, but I don't have a gap that wide right now that I could experiment.

I used mine with the shorter leg support a 4" deep curio shelf and the longer leg against the wall -- my guess is that I could have used a max 6" deep shelf.

I installed this switch in a box with 3 other switches (4 total). If I remember correctly, there are 1/8th inch or so wide "break-off" tabs on both sides of the switch that when bent back and forth and broken off, will result in more narrow width profile, that allows more room for the other switchs.

I used 14 gauge, but not sure if there is a limit one way or the other. We still have not had any problems at all with this box. Love it. Highly recommend it

I used them for flush countersinks but I just did that by controlling the depth by hand. There is no adjustment.

Yes, our base boards are about 3/4 in, so no problem. Very easy to set up, looks crooked at first but straighten out while making adjustments. :)

I have set mine to cut 1/8" birch plywood. I have even cut less to cut in a area to lay decorative copper wire. I do not know off the top of my head the max depth. I do not know if it will cut the short side of a 2X4. The gauge is easy to set! I like mine. I do say that you need to use it a few times to get used to its quirky way of always needing to plunge cut everything.

Not with absolute confidence ... I agree that it could mean the height when folded -- and that my bench folds a trifle larger than 6 3/4". And it doesn't matter for my purposes; I don't really have to fit a folded bench to any strict limit. When extended, the bench makes a good work surface. When folded, it transports and stores away handily. Actually, I love the d*#n thing.

I tried putting in several 4x6 photos in the box and it bent them. You unfortunately can't stand them up which they need to be when stored. This won't work for you. Sorry but I feel you would regret it. I like the box a lot but I use it for important papers that lay flat.

I don't think there is any limitation on the thickness of the tray board, it screws into the bottom side of the tray and nothing hits the top side. The screws into the rails do hit the sides of it a tad though as mentioned in my review.

Don't think there is any depth limit. I have used it just for drilling holes in wine bottles for the wife's home decorating efforts. It all depends on your drill/drill press and the material you're working with.

Yup, almost any thickness of sub-floor/flooring is fine: elec box is adjustable. The hole is square in shape with rounded off corners (about 3/4" radius), Template is included. For tools we used an oscilating multi-tool and roto-zip for corners. A jig saw probably would work but use masking tape over flooring to protect and stop tearing of wood flooring.

I just bent a sample piece, it will do it, if properly adjusted. But if thats a thickness you will bend a lot a press brake may be a better option. I will add that I have been very happy with this brake. Its perfect for the home shop and I have done some nice work for my race car with it!

Yes, I set it up for 1/4" dados and it works fine. I don't see why you could not go wider if you wish.
