[QUOTE="Johny25, post: 262123, member: 7791"] Welcome Apex :D Ok aluminum angle is not designed to be bent. I am not sure which way you are intending to bend it though either? It is designed to stay at the 90 degree angle. If you are planning on using fairly small pieces the you can get some flat bar and bend that to a custom angle. If all are going to be the same then just make a wooden jig at the angle you are going for and bend all your small pieces to match. Aluminum bends pretty easy depending on the thickness of course. Heating it will also allow it to bend easier but can also temper it causing it to become brittle. Just get a bendable grade of aluminum like 6061. [/QUOTE]
