Heavy duty pipe/ring roller

[MeJasonT]

I have started work work on a heavy duty ring roller to roll 2" scaffold pole, I have a crazy customer who wants a handrail made for a staircase and I don't have 4 grand lying around. I have attached the Autocad DWG file and pictures of my progress. Heavy Duty Ring Roller.dwg

I had all the parts lying around I needed to try building it

The frame has been completed, rollers and feed slider, I will add more build information as I progress through the build.







I have a couple of bug bears, I cant fit a chain between the two drive rollers as the feed slide is in the way and the rollers are further apart than I would have liked. I cant get hold of cheap chain and sprockets - I was thinking 125cc motor cycle chain and 3 x front sprockets (idler and a sprocket for each drive roller).
