Thinner gauges (0.8 mm-1.5 mm) can be bent by hand over a straight edge or with a simple sheet metal brake. Thicker gauges (2 mm-4 mm) require a bench brake or press brake. Avoid sharp-radius bends on thicker stock - use a bend radius of at least 1x the material thickness to prevent cracking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eHow does the 100x100 mm size compare to the 200x200 mm in terms of value?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"hdiy-faq-body\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 200x200 mm sheet gives you 4x the surface area of the 100x100 mm piece, and the price per square millimeter is lower on larger sizes.
