I built that W6PQL 80 watt amp last year. Built the aluminum chassis, too. I
did not have a sheet metal brake, but a few minutes on Google turned up
quite a few home-brew brake plans. I built one of them and used it to form
the chassis for my amp, and later on a couple other small boxes for shack
utility projects. If you enjoy building stuff, creating your own brake is
worth the effort. I think I made mine for less than $25. And it works pretty
darn well!
