Thanks, Wheelie. I got the dies on eBay from a company called "Barbed Wire Off Road". I got three sizes.

Made a little more progress on the floorboards and tunnel. Trying to decide whether or not to run a few beads (parallel to the tunnel) inside the flanged area.

You never cease to amaze me. Keep up the great work.

Nice job! You said you were undecided on adding some beads inside the flanged area. I think I would. It would stiffen things up quite a bit.

mknittle · 04-09-2013, 10:21 PM

A guy gets a bead roller and look what happens!

Lookin really nice!

Thank You. Yes, I think you're right. I will roll three or four beads in it.

Thanks mkittle. I welded on additional structure, added a Bodine gear motor and a foot pedal to the bead roller. It turns at 5.7 rpm, which for me is the perfect speed. It really handles well. You get your Dad and his rig out of the shop yet?

What did you use for a foot pedal?

Thanks, BigDaddyV. Just think what it will look like when I get good at it.

I added some beading. I know it's not much progress, but I have been really busy at work, so I haven't any time to spend on the truck.

FarmerSid · 04-13-2013, 07:17 AM

Looks much stronger. Nice work!

He moved to the back so I am back to working on mine during the week.
It works out because It is Bonsai show season here. The shows we go too are on weekends.
