Hey everyone, I'm starting to explore metalworking for some DIY projects and wanted to learn more about metal bending. I’m looking to bend a variety of metals, including steel and aluminum, and am wondering about the best techniques for both small-scale and larger pieces. I’ve read about manual benders, hydraulic presses, and even using heat, but I’m unsure which methods are most effective for precise bends without damaging the material. Can anyone share tips, tools, or advice on how to get clean, accurate bends? Also, what are the common mistakes to avoid?
