    Not sure which one that is but the boyds built brakes I've used are nice. I know there different styles but the one I used would do anything but sheer.

      besides a welder a sheetmetal brake was 1 of the best investments ive made in the dirt late model world,and mine is a boyd built and its made 100's of bodies if that answers your question,and its also bent somethings it really wasnt made for but it bent it just fine

          Have 8 ft. Boyd Built brake. Straight tight bends, very good brake and easy to adjust for radius bends. Good folks & easy to work with.

            Spend your money with someone else. They build good stuff but NO customer service, for the price there are lots of options, choose another.

                Tennsmith build the best out there but they are 2.5 times the cost of a boyd built. I would look for a used 14 gauge tennsmith that way anyone who needs thick metal bent and has a boyd built can pay you to do it

                  They also do a great job on cell phones ... thought yours was thin? Should've seen mine after I left in on the ledge and then flattened a seam. Ugly
