New toy for the shop. Since this is a new area to experiment with I was trying to go cheap but fortunately Shane talked me into upgrading. I really don't see how people bead roll without the power motor! I'm really good at making tacos so far! I've already killed one of my new firewall panels for the 67 project in the background. I'll post up pics when I can roll something that looks decent.

Nice, I was just looking at the same one yesterday. I'll probably be ordering one here soon. I agree about having the motor and foot pedal.

As promised! Pictures of my first project using the bead roller that did not end up in the scrap pile! Still working out the technique with this thing... it's a lot trickier than it looks!

Awesome.Trans tunnel look's great.

[Revved]

Updated Pic! TIG'ing together the tunnel. Making that transition from the floor tunnel up to the firewall was the most challenging things I've fabbed so far! I pulled the trans and bell out after tacking everything up just to make sure I had plenty of clearance for future removal of components.
