I haven't seen this "3-in-1 import sheet metal machine" to which you
refer.

[ ... ]

This is the user's manual:
http://www.northerntool.com/download...als/334987.pdf

I like the manual -- in particular on PDF page 8 (printed page
number 6) warnings #10 ("Never leave when the machine is running") and
13 ("Ues a grounded extension cord rated for the machine amperage".) :-)

It does seem to contain more warnings and safety advice than
information on how to actually *do* something with it. :-)

And I like the fact that it can (supposedly) roll and bend 22
Ga. mild steel, but can only *shear* 28 Ga. mild steel. It does not
fill me with confidence. :-)

Enjoy,
DoN.
