Re: 56 pro touring build

We actually started with a Harbor Freight unit. It makes a good starting point for a cheap beadroller. Is it as good as a Lazze? Not even close but neither is the price. If we were in the industry, I would not hesitate to buy the best, and his is touted to be the best. Check him out on youtube. He is a master. Anyways, We looked online for modifications to beef this thing up because they are not strong enough on their own. There is a member on the forum (builtbybrooks) that does offer a strengthening kit. Search for beadroller and you will find his build. Wait till you see this guys welding. It is very nice and worth every cent that he is asking, but we just dont have the $$$ to do it. We just ended up using what we had laying around; 2x2x 120 wall square tubing. So far, it has turned out nice but we have not tested it at all. We will post pictures.
