WTB Used Metal Shrinker for sheet metal work.
I have been looking in all the usual places for new metal shrinkers
(Eastwood, MSC, etc) and for what I need don't want to spend the cash for a new one. I need to form a 3/4" flange around a .015 - .018 stainless steel plate and don't want to bend it over a piece of wood via hammering. So I thought a metal shrinker would be the way to go until I saw the price for new. Any leads would be helpful to me on used unit. Another idea I had was to use a flanging tool similar to the kind used in duct work. Your experiences working with bending flanges would sure help me learn this technique. Thanks in advance group. -- John "Ebby" Ebensperger Hatz Classic s/n37 Camden, NY |
