It lets you make clean, straight bends, which makes the fitting and assembly much easier (and the final look cleaner). I will try to take a picture of it and post so you can see the tool I am referring to. A small anvil and a tinker's hammer help a lot too.

Sorry to disappoint but she's not getting painted, just clear coated after I finish the brass. Decided I like the look of the bare metal and brass too much to cover it up.
Thanks for the comp. Try doing a search for Titans on here, there are some truely AMAZING titans being built on here.

Man, those brass plates look amazing! You could leave it unpainted with those, or only do a little detail/polishing on the steel.

Here are the promised pictures of the break.
This is with it open, with a sheet of brass inserted for illustration.
And this is in its 'folded' position. The only thing not shown are the clamps to hold the top bar that holds the metal and gives the clean fold.

I will have to check again, been a while but if memory serves it was about 4-5 pounds. Actually a lot lighter than it looks.
