This is just like the old coffee shop, which was like the old coffee shop down the street. Pull up a chair, sit down and enjoy some good discussions. Please, no political, religious or racial posts.

Tom , Its just a bead roller , my good neighbor's son has a hydraulic press so I didn't get the combo .

I've seen that combination roller , shear and bender on the Harbor Freight website ......they look cool .

Looks like a fun tool to add to the collection! Im thinking back to HS metal shop and scratching my head on its function.... is this for strengthening the center of sheet metal panels, or to put some sort of edge on a panel. Now that i know its not a gun stand....(my own slapstick humor that no one liked)lol.... fill me in. Dave

Tom , giant cigar roller ....LOL now that's funny . :lol:
With our recently improved relations with Cuba , I can now import my Havana's ...... :D

Dave , The bead roller can make strengthening beads in floor pans and inner door skins , or make a folded metal edge like on cub cadet hoods for example . It all depending on what dies you use .
I've got a couple of old Pexto sheet metal rollers that I've used in the past and have been impressed with .

I've watched a few automotive panel fabrication video's on Youtube and became fascinated with the possibilities of taking a flat piece of sheetmetal and forming it into any number of shapes and curves . I've not had a lot of experience with bead rollers ,so there's going to be a learning curve .
