Just a tech term Saul ,a bending brake has a folding beam, 100% agree with what you said![]()
It is a proper technical term and I used it to differentiate from the others since many reviewers called all of them bending brakes, which they obviously (for the reason you stated) are not. It is also the strongest as it doesn't rely on half etching to bend thicker brass sheets uniformly and crisply.
