The Best Way to Bend Sheet Metal by Hand- Cutting Corners Episode 13

If you’ve ever struggled with bending metal in tight spaces or faced a job too complex for a CNC press brake, wave bending is your solution. In this episode of Cutting Corners, we break down how wave bending works by creating controlled weak spots in the material, making it easier to hand-fold without sacrificing strength. ⏱️Timestamps⏱️ 00:23: What is wave bending 01:13: Why you would use wave bending 03:03: Will you save money 04:34: Jake's rule of thumb 05:04: Standard wave designs 10:08: Dashed wave design 11:38: Tabbed wave design 13:09: What to avoid We’ll explain when and why wave bending is the right choice, how it helps with tricky designs, and why it’s perfect for parts that just won’t cooperate with traditional machines. Jim and Jake provide design tips, showing how material thickness and tab width affect the bending process. They’ll also share tips on avoiding common mistakes and ensuring your bends hold up without cracking or failing. From mild steel to aluminum and beyond, you’ll see how wave bending turns tough materials into manageable folds. Plus, they’ll give you tips that will save you time to keep your projects running smoothly and cost-effective. Want to rock the same gear as Jim and Jake?
