I built one of those years ago and still have most of it.
I bought a Central tools one and modded some of the components to fit..............

Welcome to the forum Clifford! Glad to see you posting!

I'm all for making my own equipment...but I bought one off ebay,with all the round dies and one square die for $50 shipped to my door. Couldn't pass that one up. One thing when using this tool, do be sure to have a secure mount for it when you extend the handle to bend material...the leverage will rip mounting lag bolts right out of your bench!
