Bending 3mm mild steel

[mk1nova_rich]

Been making card templates for my cage spreader plates this morning, and just ordered some 3mm sheet to make them from.

90 degree bends... possible without heat or machines lol? Or am I best getting them done by a fabrication company??

Vice and hammer.

you should manage it cold, but i'd be inclined to give it some heat to prevent it splitting.

Another question regarding fitting my cage...what grade bolts do people use??

10.9 - anything else is substandard!
