Love these
I only wish they made them much longer sizes alsoDavid of Copper By Design
Very Handy Seamer
I have used these flat bar seamers on a regular basis for over 25 years and not yet had one fail on me yet. I was able to use the center holes to make a removable handle on this for more grip. I have an old 12" long flat bar seamer with 3/8" grove on one side and 1/2" on the other, but they stopped making them a while back. That's a shame. I hope they will bring it back again. I would also like to see a 3/4" seamer like this.Jon E. Wood

Works fine.Will Usher
Quick method to fold sheet metal without a full brake.
Had to do some ducting modification for a new HVAC system. I'd never done it before, but this tool made my life much, much, easier. Very simple, but sturdy and well-made. You can't really see in the picture, but it's got a thin split along both edges that allow sheet metal to be pushed inside the tool and bent against a (sturdy) flat surface to create a straight clean bend of any degree.Ron G
