Assistance on small metal project? London UK
 

Hello,

Can anyone point me to a metal shop that could assist me with the
bending of brass channel? I have been beating my head against a wall
trying to bend small (3/8"x3/16") brass channel in a 1/2" radius (the
hard way). I need some professional help at this point.

I have attempted the bending by hand with a wooden jig, wood's metal,
and pitch but seemingly cannot keep the metal from torqueing while I
bend it.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

The channel needs to be fully supported in all directions on both legs
AND the back of the channel while going through the bend area. This is
going to involve some circular slots (probably made from several rings
of suitable dimensions) This is a 3/8" on a 1/2" radius, fairly
difficult so tooling is a must.
