The Harbor Fright Roller----

I found one of these used thru Craigslist:

It is a good idea for tin foil, but GROSSLY under built for working on car parts. Scary Huh?

SOOOOOOOO....

We added about 60 pounds of steel:

I also upgraded the hardware to Grade-8 bolts.

And this stand:

Up and working! Waiting for final paint.

So this worked, but needs a proper wheel, as the handle BITES unless you have someone to turn the handle while you feed the steel. So here is how I started:

I used a piece of conduit to check the feed and "crunch" needed to make the right sized circle. Then i fed a piece of 1" square tubing into my tubing kinker using the formula I discovered on the conduit.

So I ended up with this:

After some hammering and welding it now looks like this:

With a hub and some spokes it will be a perfect wheel for driving the beadroller.

TA DAAAAAA!!!

The stand was off being re-welded where it had broken.
