Made of CNC-machined aluminum for optimal precision and durability 

Etch Buddy is a state-of-the-art tool that you use to fold, bend and shape photo-etched flat parts into 3-dimensional objects with unparalleled precision and efficiency. To use, lock your photo-etched part under one of the fingers on the top plate. Slide the supplied blade under the part and into the precision-machined fold line on the bottom plate. Then, lift the blade to bend the part to the desired shape. Etch Buddy has a wide assortment of finger widths and contours to accommodate all shapes and sizes of photo-etch sheet up to 6-1/2 inches long. The top plate may be rotated 180 degrees for long, straight bends. Note: For full length bends, we recommend substituting a metal ruler, such as #10115 (sold separately), for the blade. Unique features ensure perfectly square bends every time. Beautifully made of CNC-machined aluminum for a lifetime of use.

Nice Tool

by Lindy

Nice tool, well made although the index pins fit very tight. Use should wear them in. Made some test folds with scrap and it works as described ;)
Not best pleased with the price, but there ya' go ... Modern times eh.
