The bead roller is just a harbor freight unit. I added some stiffeners to it to help with heavier gauge material.

Just read another thread about the HF bead roller, on another board.

Poor quality I assume? They mentioned needing to beef up the design.

xpickup · 11-26-2012, 08:58 AM

69CST-V, You can not complain for the cost on it. I have read that you just have to brace them up some. Great job.

WOW,too much work for me !

_Ogre · 11-30-2012, 03:44 PM

nice work so far, but i think your cheating with the overhead crane

you'd think the patch panels would fit better, i had to work every piece some what.
some times i'd ask my self, ''what were they thinking?"

i've used and modified the hf bead rollers too, yours is lacking a motor...
how do you like that throatless shear? where did you get that?

I'd like to see how you did the motor option. The shear is from Eastwood and it works well. I had to do some work adjusting it but once that was done it makes quick work of trimming and rough cut work.

69CST-V · 12-01-2012, 08:28 PM

Well I got a little shop time today. Started working on getting the sub floor mocked up. I'm missing one rear cab mount bracket to be able to weld the skin to it.

69CST-V · 12-01-2012, 08:32 PM

Also built the second cab stand. The second cab should be back here this week.

_Ogre · 12-02-2012, 12:42 AM

nice freaking welding table, sweet shop

we had an variable speed ac drive off a welding fixture i put on the bead roller complete with foot pedal
unfortunately the tech who had the roller left so i remove and still have the drive

Ok its here. The 2nd cab showed up tonight so here are the first pic's of it.

69CST-V · 12-05-2012, 09:29 PM

The interior.

Well I guess its better than the other one. Lots of work ahead.

**oldman3** · 12-06-2012, 12:45 AM

Looks solid...Jim

69CST-V · 12-30-2012, 10:03 PM

Well I hope everyone had a good Christmas. I've been traveling for work and doing the holiday thing so the updates haven't been as happening. I have done a few things iso I will try to post those up. So after the new year hopefully I can get back on it again. Hope everyone has a safe and Happy New Year.

Lol, I was thinking the same thing Jim.
This is the first time I've seen your build. Your definitely not afraid to dig in and do it right. I can appreciate how much work it takes to do the work right no matter how many times you might have to refine your repairs. It takes a little longer but it sure feels great at the end of the day to know you have some solid repairs. Awesome work.

Scott, thanks for the kind words, looking forward to more of yours...Jim

69CST-V · 07-21-2013, 09:48 AM

Thanks Scott. I've spent most of the first half of this year out of the country. I returned in late April bought a new house and am in the middle of redoing the shop. Can't wait to back to work on these. I have lots of updates just need time to transfer them on to the site.
