August 4, 200916 yr My name is Armand Tatro. Between my son and I we have welders, cutting torches, drillpresses. small (12 ton presses) and a kit-bilt cnc pattern cutter(3/8 plasma cutter or flame-cut so far to 1 1/2in. thick. I also have a kit-bilt power hammer with a wood frame. I also have a forge and anvil along with the usual shop tools. I would like to build a 4 or 5 ft. lomg metal roller. Has anybody done this or have any suggestions or ideas? Armand
August 4, 200916 yr I assume you mean a sheet metal roller. Here is a link to one .Sheet Metal Slip Roll Machine You may be able to scale it up to the size you need.
August 4, 200916 yr More info please: do you want to reduce the thickness of hot steel by rolling or do you want to make circles and rings from hot or cold metal---both are called rollers though the first one is better called a rolling mill.
August 4, 200916 yr Author dkunkler I was thinking about a slip roller. Thankyou for asking and the information. I will study this and will have more questions. Armand
