That looks a lot more stable Elin.. Good job.. Now to work on my own stability, but tightening nuts will not be possible as the wife removed those years ago !
just a little fyi if you are in the market for a new bead roller of this style. eastwood's version is made of much heavier material and has grease zerks. while not perfect it's not flimsy like this one or the harbor freight option. so when you modify the eastwood, you have a very nice roller. just my 2 cents.
I knew this comment was going to come up :) I am not interested in motorizing it. I use it for simple jobs, not very often and I'd like to keep it as small, light and simple as possible. Easy to move around and store, when not used. If one day I have a big garage and more use of a bead roller, I will build a bigger one and motorize it.
