Default Sheet metal brake help.

I'm in the middle of designing/building a small sheet metal brake. I
got everything figured out except 2 things///

1. From the edge og the bas how far back should the clamp be to leave
enough bend radius ? - maybe someone has a brake they can measure
this difference on.

2. How much clearance is there between the bending edage and the piece
being rotated to bend the metal ??

Thanks
Mike
