Greetings! It's time to fold up the metal panels for this Power Wheels Jeep project, but I don't have a metal brake. Can't catch a break, eh? Sorry, that was a bad joke. Anyways, I made it work using my vice, hammers, some lumber, a piece of angle iron, and some clamps. Many, many clamps. What did I learn from this? I learned metal brakes are awesome and i should find a cheap one. I'm eyeing a suspiciously cheap one made by harbor freight. That might happen. I don't know. It's way too cheap to be a good tool, though. Like, there's no way it can be that cheap. I might have to fix it constantly. Oh well, i have a welder and i lack the common sense to buy a better, more expensive one. Cheap-o brake is in my future probably. Also i have a coupon. If i don't use it, i lose it right? I dont' want to lose any money on this deal! that's how coupons work, right? RIGHT?! If you have read this far, then fun fact, today is my birthday. For my birthday I would like a good night of sleep. Not going to happen, I know.
