thank you very much for the comment. I had the top rolled at a place called advanced bending here in Calgary, but I am working on building my own roller hydraulically driven so it's easier to have forward and reverse. I'm going to try and build it as simple as simple can be so that you people out there KZitem land or more than welcome to copy the design I may try using a power steering pump powered by electric motor which are very inexpensive and easy to find used

I welded a round plate on the end of the 4" and then a short 1" stub on the back of plate which goes into the jaws. I have several different size jigs for turning rings.

Hi Wayne ! My name is Ian. I use two sizes of rings for my application - 5 and 6 inches diameter from square tubing 0.5 x 0.5 inches. I bay them from Metal Supply Store, but they all time different and it make a big problem for me. Your machine is my dream, not less !!! To make a ring 0.5 x 1, I double and weld two rings together. It is no problem to find power drive, but what you think, it can roll 0.5 x 0.5 and 0.5 x 1 inch square tubing, 5 and 6 inches diameter? All your video lessons it just awesome. Thank you

+ian shwartzman Thanks for the comments. you have to have a travelling guide when rolling circles from square tube because it will have a tendency to twist sideways. the guide will keep the walls of the tubing vertical. with round material it doesn't matter.

the gate you see is 10' long. Outside frame is 2x1 rectangular tube 100' wall. All inside material is 065' wall go keep the weight down. I suspect you will be building a longer gate for a driveway. I have done single gates up to 15.5' long, but I use 2×2"×100' tubing for the outside frame and all internal tubing is 065'. THE MOST IMPORTANT COMPONENT IS THE POST IT IS HANGING FROM!!!DON'T USE A WOODEN POST!!!!!GO STEEL!!!! Good luck. If you email me I will send you plans for some awesome adjustable hinges. waynedartist@live.ca

Is galvanizing gates not a big thing in the states, it cures the rust problems out of the gate

If every joint isn't totally welded, galvanizing doesn't necessarily get into all the crevices..

How much spring back do you get? Meaning how much bigger is the I.D of the rings than the O.D of the pipe you roll them around?
@idiotradar1
4 жыл бұрын
Maybe .125-.188. By the time I cut them with a zip disc they are fairly snug around my mandrill. The only way to have them tight is to roll them hot; which will open up a big can of worms getting them off.

If you look closely, you can see a weld on the end of the pipe, which would obviously have a centered 2" piece welded to it as a reducer.
