Bend Aid

Bend Aid  is a Photo Etched parts bending tool to make exact and sharp bends .

Three different types are available.

 How to make bends :

Loosening the main screw lifts the upper part of the tool a little, so that the PE can be placed between the baseplate and an apropriate holding finger . Fix the part by turning the main screw .

A gap , milled into the baseplate right to the edge of the upper plate allows to place a razor blade between the PE part and the base. Bending is performed by mooving the razor blade up to the desired angle of bending . Depending on your PE parts a little overbending may be necessary. Therefore all edges are milled at an  75° angle .

For multiple bent parts : turn around your bent part and make the next  bend using one of the different fingers .
