Abstract
A combined portable sheet bending brake and coil holder wherein the coil holder is mounted and removed from the brake without the use of tools. The brake comprises a frame having a fixed jaw and a movable jaw, an anvil member secured to the fixed jaw, the movable jaw having a clamping surface movable between workpiece clamping and non-clamping positions relative to the anvil member. A bending member is hinged to the fixed jaw. The coil holder supports a coil of sheet material. The frame of the brake and the coil holder have interengaging hooks whereby the coil holder may be mounted and removed from the frame. When the coil holder is in position, the coil is positioned such that the leading edge of the coil may be extended between the clamping surfaces and clamped to permit cut off of a desired length of sheet material.
