Which Sheet Metal Brake

I'm looking hard at getting a small (24" or maybe up to 36") box brake for bending aluminum. I can't seem to find a good option. All the 24" brakes I have found are only rated at 20 gauge for mild steel and I need to bend up to 1/16" aluminum. From what I have read a brake designed for 20 gauge steel probably won't be up to the task of 1/16" aluminum, not to mention being able to set it up to a reasonable bend radius for 1/16" aluminum. Seems like the only option is to jump up to a 48" which also dramatically increases the costs not to mention my lack of floor space for a 48" brake. Anyone know of a good option for a smaller brake that will do 1/16" aluminum?
