The invention provides a method of bending a workpiece to a predetermined bending angle, in which, in a first step, the workpiece is bent to a somewhat greater bending angle and then released. Thereafter, the amount of resilient back motion occurring after the first bending operation is measured. The adjustable die bottom is readjusted such that a bending angle would result in the next bending operation which corresponds to the desired final bending angle minus the amount of resilient back motion. After the second bending operation, the workpiece is released and the legs thereof will resiliently move back to enclose the final predetermined bending angle.
