I have the need to wrap a plywood box with thin aluminum sheeting.
The box is 4ft X 4ft. I need to bend the edges of the sheeting about
1/2" along the 4 ft edges in order to wrap the entire box.
Anyone ever rig up a makeshift brake out of wood in
order to accomplish this? I don't want to spend $400 and up for a
factory made break if I can help it. Thanks.

You can get a hand held seaming tool that will bend about 12" at a time,
which you could work down the line, or if it doesn't have to be that neat
just bend it in place over the edge of the box with a piece of angle iron
clamped on top.
