That is too often my problem. I am usually on the receiving end of the "treasure". Have accumulated some great stuff though....
I hate to see something good thrown away.

On the bright side they weren't thrown out, we did sell those for a little something.

Well I came across another bending brake. This one I am going to keep.
It is a light one, but works really good for metal lips. I just bent a couple I am using for some 4" goo goo swimmers I've been meaning to finish for quite some time. With this nice weather, I might just get some done soon. I think it originally might have come from micromark or some other tool place.
