Default Metal Working Slip Roll

Who owns a slip roll ???

What kind?
How big?
How much did you spend?

Anyone got a cheap Central machine one?



Compact size makes this unit perfect for small projects and detail work. High carbon steel rollers remain true under the most demanding applications.

Material capacity (gauge): aluminum 17,
brass 18, steel 20
Minimum radius: 1"
Maximum forming width: 12"
Wire forming grooves: 1/8", 1/4", 3/8"

Wire forming groves would be for round stock ehy?

I could roll 3/8in rod???

I wonder how tight of a circle it could make?

Like to be able to take round stock from 1/8-3/8 and make small circles of a few inches up to around 18in.

Being able to do sheet metal would just be a bonus option Id rarley use.



I may need to build my own machine in the end Im just looking for options.
In my mind I see like a 3 roller pipe forming machine but bench size for small stock and hand operated.
