Coil Holder That’s a Cut Above
The Trim Coil Holder from InnovaTools makes it easy to swap out trim coil and features a reversible, built-in guillotine cutter.
The new Trim Coil Holder from InnovaTools is a time-saving tool for anyone who uses a metal brake regularly. This holder makes swapping out trim coil easier than ever; there’s no need to cut off the 90° bend found on some coils, and the coil does not expand in the holder, making it easy to fit back into the original box for storage.
The built-in guillotine cutter eliminates the need for a separate portable cutter and is reversible for use on either side of the brake. The holder attaches to the InnovaTool brake, or you can buy one of the two stand-alone options, one vertical and one horizontal.
The horizontal holder is easy to mount to a sawhorse or tabletop, and the vertical version allows you to pull out the coil without scratching the finished surface when the holder is set on the ground. The horizontal model costs $795, the vertical is $885, and the brake-mounted version costs $965 at innovatools.ca.

That looks neat... except the price! When I bought a new Van-Mark metal-master20 I bought the accompanying coil holder for $350.
Agreed. That's not that far below the current cost of a Tapco coil holder PLUS the pro cutter, which also does rip cuts.
