The First MAJOR change for Portable Metal Brakes in 30 years?

Is this really the first major change in the portable metal brake industry in the last 30 years? I guess when I think about it, nothing has really changed since I have been in the trades. Good to see Innova Tools finally come out with the brand new brakes.

Thanks for the booth visit and video Kyle! It's always a pleasure meeting up! We're looking forward to/working towards setting a new standard in the industry!

[@helenenonodo1693]

I am fully impressed! It's just a complete kzbin.infoUgkxGqOCINHE0Z0E5gxzSdNi9NWGugRY5Hm2 plan with the best resources and step by step instructions. These shed plans are so satisfying as if the sheds build themselves on their own. Worthy work Ryan!

We bought the 14’ contractor grade for our siding business here in Louisiana and we love it. They are great people to deal with as well. Haven’t done the review yet but I’m working on it.

[@ajs96350]

I'm thinking of ordering one as well, what do you use it for mostly?

[@TheMat0042]

Thank you Kyle, we truly appreciate the time and energy you put into this video. It’s always great to see you at these events. Thank you for your interest in Innovatools.

[@RRBuildings]

Thanks john! Appreciate you too

[@VideosByAl]

John is an incredible educator .

[@rexsmith1698]

Never used a brake in my life, but that brake is so sexy, makes me want to buy one!

[@ajs96350]

I've been using brakes for 25 years and this is truly innovative, it's been the same thing for ever.

[@mgc1970]

John's skill is second to none!!! 👍🏻🥃 So Kyle.... Are you gonna upgrade to a shiny new brake??!!

[@johnmiller-zg7bj]

Thank you for the props sir

[@hardwoodcd]

This brake looks awesome! My brake is set up with Innovatool accessories!

[@alexsanchezarce1259]

I got so lucky running into this video, I’ve been looking for a new brake!!!

[@toddmoyer225]

That looks like an incredibly well engineered and manufactured tool. Throughly impressed by the quality of that unit.

[@alansousa2488]

The metal brake 17’6” is mine😊

[@z06doc86]

This is the coolest brake of them all. I don’t need one in my business, but I’d like to buy one just to set up and look at in the shop. Great design and the craftsmanship looks excellent. Thanks guys. 👍👍

[@RRBuildings]

Really is awesome isn’t it

[@miguelsontay280]

Man that's amazing metal brakes

[@jeffgrant935]

Very cool looking system... thanks for sharing!

[@dnaumowicz]

More people need to see this!

[@RRBuildings]

Agree

[@SnappyWasHere]

Definitely need a shorts and TikTok of that final facia bend.

[@Ninjump]

Man I just bought a traditional brake not long ago, I really wish I had seen this! 😢

[@A_DHomesCarpentry]

I was about to, glad I didn't yet

[@Ninjump]

@@A_DHomesCarpentry so happy for you lolol

[@ScottyLo]

What a great tool. Looks great too

[@shawnofdadead1805]

My 10' 6" has barely been used and I'm thinking about buying this now!

[@RRBuildings]

It’s pretty legit

[@ajs96350]

@@RRBuildings I stumbled upon a video of Alex using the coil slitter this morning and I was so blown away at how slick that design is, I ordered one this morning, his brake is next to replace my 8 year old VanMark.

[@bobbrinkerhoff3592]

Very interesting and well thought out , thanks Kyle for giving this it's own video .

[@stevebuitenhuis9433]

Great to see this video and awesome brake, been siding for 20+ years can't wait to get one someday 😊

[@jacobconfer1693]

I’ve been really close to upgrading my brake to a newer tapco but now this has me scratching my head

[@innovatoolsinc]

Dont hesitate to reach out if you have any question!

[@ajs96350]

I have one, light years better than Tapco and VanMark.

[@neonnblack]

Was actually shocked at the price. Not in this trade by any means, so I didn't know brake prices to begin with but I really expected him to say 8k for the cost.

[@A_DHomesCarpentry]

I was expecting around the same

[@bryanb5413]

Amazing engineering. Thanks for sharing.

[@markroper9269]

Very cool stuff!! Great product and demo!

[@ColeSpolaric]

Let's start taking bets on when this shows up on a job site!

[@MrTooldaddy]

Wow... I so want one of these.

[@daryldavirro4237]

Beautiful brake. I really need one so when you upgrade yours to this one. Be sure to ship yours to me...😂

[@paysontom1]

Nice to see you at JLC. Attended shows there for years from day one until I moved west. Wish they had one out here in Utah. Have attended in Portland Oregon a few times.

[@andrewkennedy9704]

Order yours yet kyle?

[@edwinkrikhaar7223]

I say a shoptour in the factory would be nice Kyle!

[@innovatoolsinc]

Im sure Kyle has seen many factories much more exciting than ours but door is always opened for any visit! Same applies to any of our potential customers! If you're close by the ottawa region and want to come visit the showroom/shop floor just send us an email!😊

Ces gens sont des génies, sans eux notre travail serai bien différent, ils travaillent tous pour nous rendre la vie bien plus facile merci à vous tous bravo !!

[@innovatoolsinc]

Merci!

[@carcasscruncher9354]

That was a hell of an example. However, not replicating the same thing to tie into means "so what " about his signature moves. Let's see him replicate two of those that come together! Come on people

[@johnmiller-zg7bj]

With the Innovatool measuring accessories, not a problem

[@lyleconway6795]

If Alex needs a guy on the east coast of canada to rep his new break around I’m his man! Looks beautiful

[@mountaingrow4075]

Take my money

[@josephhfry]

Do they offer a break with fingers for doing boxes and pans?

[@chuckfry1227]

Hey there Mr Fry 👋

[@josephhfry]

@@chuckfry1227 back at you... Cuz?

[@johnmiller-zg7bj]

Box returns can be done easily on the ends of the brake and because the handles are moveable you can bring a handle to the end of the tool for ease of fabricating your box return

[@josephhfry]

@@johnmiller-zg7bj a single box return is great. But if doing a pan or box, you need to be able to do four box returns in the same direction on a single sheet. This means you need to be able to accommodate at least one return in the field of the brake. Which is why finger brakes exist. It's fine if this does not have finger brake capabilities, most portable brakes don't, was just curious if they had that option. Would be a game changer for HVAC and plumbing contractors.

[@johnmiller-zg7bj]

@@josephhfry I understand, I was thinking like a siding and roofing installer and not like a HVAC mechanic. We will take your request to add moving fingers under advisement. No guarantees but an idea we will consider at some point. For now a hand seaming tool is your best bet on the opposing side of the pan. Thanks for your comments, we appreciate your feedback

[@thunderstruck1078]

I'd prefer if you asked a few pointy questions instead of practically being their salesman. You only see positive stuff. Like a guy on TV which hosts a demo of a food processor, a set of knives or some cookware. Have you ever "seen Kyle"?

[@innovatoolsinc]

Don't hesitate to reach out with any pointy questions I'll be happy to answer them the best I can! my cellphone number is directly on our website!

[@ajs96350]

Got any pointy questions? I have one so I can answer.

[@thunderstruck1078]

OK, that's disappointing. No one got my "seen Kyle" reference.

20' POS and definition of oil canning. Zero embossing, zero T-factor. total junk!

[@ajs96350]

Do you own one? Cause I do and it's freaking awesome, best brake I've ever had. So shove your negativity where the sun don't shine.
