Having used similar equipment I'd not want to try and guide a workpiece at one end while trying to crank at the other end. I bought one of the HF pipe threaders Portable Electric Pipe Threader to power my rock sifter. I'm going to adapt it to power my HF tubing roller and when I get a bead former that's what I'll use to power it. It's 2hp, runs on 110v powerful and runs at 40rpm. And with the quick change I can just transfer it from machine to machine. I found a return at one of the stores for like $100. I would have spent way more on a motor, sprockets and chain!
