What tools do I need for this?

I bet it has to do with the government not looking at the line items on the returns to determine your category.

I made a bunch of money in the first half of the year when I was working for 3M, then worked for another outfit, then worked on building the shop. So since I spent more than I made, it didn't work out well for me with the stimulus check. But I got to pay more in property taxes...

a great first project for your ring roller is to roll a ring for the handle's...i used 5/8" all thread. i had a piece out back collecting rust so it was a good choice. it also gives great grip.
you will find the roller much nicer and easy-er to use after you add a ring.

I got me one of those 5/8 rods so I will definately do that...thanks for the tip.

[QUOTE=KEENAVV;158485]Thank you LOUD GREEN VEGATABLE. I just ordered one./QUOTE]

I got it. The outer box was fine, the inner-orignal box- looked like it had been dropped 50'. The top was so bent the shaft wouldn't go through the bearings even after loosening them. After 3 phone calls I got an RMA# ,re packed it and FED EX is to pick it up for return tomarrow.

That sucks.

Hope the next one arrives in good working order.

They do work good.

Yeah, I thought mine wudn't gonna work either, but when I loosened all of the 8 screws the rod was able to fit. I rolled a 5/8 inch all threaded rod for the ring...pitiful I say. The ring roller works, but I started the first part of it to small so it's not exactly circular But it is easier than just using the handles.

seems like a lot of them arrive beat up a bit or a lot. a little fiddling usualy gets it togather and working. i suspect its the size of the box VS how heavy it is. it gets 1/2 way picked up not expecting it to be so heavy and as such the picker dose not have a good hold and down it goes. or it could just be crappy service. but when you get one working you will be glad you got threw the hassle and have a neat new toy.

I just got ring roller#2 and the inner box also looks like it has been dropped. Not as bad as the first one. The shaft wont go through bearings but is much closer than #1.In the AM I'll loosen the bearing bolts and try again.

[KEENAVV]

The shaft went in when the flange bearings were loosened. The cotter pin had to be ground to fit the shaft and handle hub. I am going to drill new mounting holes in the base to match the base of my HF bender. I already have shields with bolts in the driveway and garage. Is this what you call a hijack????
