I picked up one of the bead roller kits from Princess Auto the other week. Out of the box I could flex the whole assembly by hand. So I welded on 2" thick walled square tubing along the top and bottom edges. I also welded in a piece to join the two. Now i can easily roll 16ga. I would still like to make a fence attachment so that I can make nice straight beads.
