Ok, this is probably the best shop built roller I have seen. I've had a lot of customer requests lately that have a need for some curvature. Definitely inspired me.

Very impressive, FYI if you ever decide to do a instructional video on step by step ,I know I would not be the only one that would buy it. Look forward to seeing more of your video's.

Sweet build. Thanks. It's a video so hard to tell if it's really that loud ... But the harbor freight pipe threader screams like some harbor freight tools I've had. Bad flashbacks.

Sweet build - we're working on a similar one but in an "initial pinch" layout to avoid the flat spots on the ends. One question - are the bushings in the plasma cut holes pressed in or retained with a set screw or anything? I saw you were opening them up with a die grinder, did you cut them purposely small and open them up to fit? Also one small note on those gas struts - you should mount them upside down with the rod end going down and the cylinder body going up - there is an o ring seal on the end of the cylinder body that is self-lubricating but needs to be mounted the other way around so that gravity keeps the lubricant where it's needed.

GREAT VIDEO, ANY MORE BUILDS PLANNED?
@CB-xg3hj 5 months ago

Great video. I'm wondering how you treated the end of the threaded rods that raise and lower the top roller. How does it lift the roller up, is there a shaft collar or something on there?
