Homemade ring roller
I would like to have a ring roller, but can't stomach $4-500 for one.
They look simple enough to make using a 2 ton bottle jack. Anyone have any plans, photo's, etc, or sources for homemade equipment plans? Thanks! Ronnie |

Homemade ring roller
What size stock do you want to roll? Harbor Freight sells one for $50 that
will handle 3/16" x 1" or up to 1/4" round stock. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=36790 Also, if Homier brings their truckload tool sales to your area they have one for $100 that's a knockoff of the one sold by Shop Outfitters: http://www.shopoutfitters.com/Products/238.htm I've been to two of their sales and have seen a demo at both. Unfortunately they didn't have any to sell and they don't show it on their Web site but you can at least get a look at the demo and see how simple the design is. Get on their mailing list and they'll email you whenever they're going to be in your area. http://www.homier.com Best Regards, Keith Marshall "I'm not grown up enough to be so old!"

OK, I'm having a hard time getting this thing to open, even when I get
the link to work correctly. Can someone send me this photo directly, or Don, can you contact me directly and send me the file? Thanks! Ronnie |
