New press needs some tooling to make it useful. So I made a vee block and knife for bending parts.

Vee Block & Knife:







Installed:





In a moment of insanity I decided to paint them. Will post when that is done.

Roy,
Did You use 1/2" cold rolled for the Knife? I have a 12 ton HF press, I could use a vee block, a vice and angle iron don't get it for some parts.

Finished painting the vee block and knife then made hangers to keep them on the press so they will be handy when needed.







Project is complete and ready for use.

I really should make me one of these V-blocks. I have a press with 20 ton jack. We built our press & it would likely hold up to a much larger jack. I would likely use a block quite a bit once I had one.
