Hello everyone! I have been reading the forum for some time and finally decided to post. I have designed a bike frame with large curves so I thought i need a tube roller but when I checked the prices I had quite a shock!! ... so I decided to build it by myself. I ve spend some time looking at other peoples DIY versions did heres my result. I wanted to build something cheap without the use of welding or metal and I wanted it to be dismantable. I made it out of 15mm plywood sheets laminated together and tightened with screws. I made the dies the same way without the use of a lathe just a regular home drill. The whole thing is quite heavy now and I m currently fixing a table for it. The only thing I ve bent (since I finished it today) was an old steel broomstick. It didnt kink it at all even though its quite thin. I need to buy some steel tubing and see what happens!
I hope you like it![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
