Question about ring rollers
Using a cheap ring roller (which I have not purchased at this point)
such as http://www.harborfreight.com/tubing-roller-99736.html Would it be possible to roll a piece of 1/4 or 3/8 x 1-1/4 CDS (cold drawn steel) on it's 1-1/4 dimension to a 16" circle? Hard to explain but I don't need to roll it on it's narrow side but rather the wide side. I know you could roll it on the wide side easily but the narrow side possibly presents problems. This probably a question more about the material than the machine. As in would the material hold it's shape or would it kink? Any tips are appreciated. |
