Hi,

 This sounds interesting to me, but I'm not familiar with this type of die set.
Can you tell me the max gauge of mild steel it is designed for? From your 
description I understand that max width of stock to be bent is 4.5", am I correct? 
Finally, can you tell me who manufactured the set? It does not sound like a Tiawan 
import! Also, what state are you in? (I'm in N.Y.)

			Thanks,
