GRIMSS. I work in a machine shop so the skies the limit. What RPM is your motor? Mine was 20 RPM and my dies are around 2.5". I have a 12 tooth sprocket on the motor and a 80 on the beadroller. I also remade the line reel to put the sprocket on and I still have the disconnect. It runs slow enough that you don't have to disconnect and do by hand to stop or come up on something. I just jog it.
