    Ken;

    Did not realise you did that, seems a bit daft to send a T-shirt across to England, how do you fund it as I see no adverts about, thought that the forum was just for the joy of it, and showing ones ware's!!!

    I just finished a kit car from the UK - how's that for daft?!?

    There are some ads throughout the site, though you won't see them on the forum pages when you're logged in. No matter, though, we've happily sent T-shirts farther afield then England, so just PM me your info and we'll get it right off to you.

    It is mostly about the joy of it, of course, but a little nod from one's peers is always welcome, right?

    Made the mistake of pressing the request for plans after I saw that someone
    had clicked it, thought the button may have suggested who wanted them?

    At the beginning of the post I stated that I started these without any
    drawings as basically I was using up what I had around the workshop.

    But I did start to make CAD drawings of the unit, please bare in mind I am not
    CAD proficient and I will try to add to this as, and when I can.

    Glad to see you saw the plans request button, we just added that after member suggestions.

    England is easy to mail to, BTW. We are tracking a months-long delivery to Ukraine for a previous Tool of the Week win, and it still hasn't arrived!

    Looks like a few are asking for plans, well 7. Not sure what else I can add, so here are the rollers:-

    I cut the second groove in the roller for tube the other day, should now be able to roll inch tube as well as 3/4 inch. I either need to do the idle rollers or make some adjustable guides I have been promising myself.
