- Square shafts, round bearings, sprockets, cogs and dies all combined to make a sheet metal shaping machine.. It wasn't too complicated, well as soon as I started making it the right way, anyway..
Here's a link to the CNC plasma cutter.. xtremeplasma.e...
Ok, here are some important website links. Please check them out..
Here's Tim's amazing guitar machine..

Don’t steal our stuff!
I can't be the only person who read "Bread Roller" . I expected to come here and find some sort of dough kneading contraption!
Perhaps I'll have a go at one of those another time : - )
lol I did too, I was like wth is a Bread Roller xD
I'm glad that you did not give up on this project.
I could listen to you two talk all day... Your accent is great. Keep up the great work both of you
Reminds me of Bagpuss
I admit the only thing I understood was 'Sandra is excellent at turning handles', ( ha, ha), but the sound of your voice makes for a pleasant morning as I potter about the house. Thank you both for sharing your life with me.
Ha! I'm the same really - struggling to keep up with all the new terms but it's all so interesting..
You have such a way of explaining your projects that makes it easy to understand and follow along with what you're doing. I don't have the first clue about these machines, but I'm excited to see how you continue to develop it because I understand what you explained. Keep up the good work! I'm sure you'll get it!
Thank you - it was easier to keep going on this project than think of something else to work on
You are never going to believe this. I read the title of this video bread roller. I thought you made Sandra a bread rolling machine😂
I watch the French guy and he made a croissant rolling device. I thought you were doing the same. Almost to the end of the video I was waiting for you to explain how bread would be introduced into the video😂
I had to pause and look at the title🤣
Your machine is very nice but if you could figure out how to work dough also🤔
This comment gave me a good laugh, thank you! 🤣
I thought the same thing. I even thought of Alex's roller.
Nilguiri lol so funny!!!
frioré I’m glad

Think I must be going dyslexic, I too read it as bread roller. I thought it was for Sandra and thought that looks pretty unhygienic at the beginning of the video till I saw the light and realised it was for his sheets of metal. Duh!
Yes contrary to what you have been told all your life YOU can put a square peg in a round hole !!!! The size just has to be right !! Good show. A simple solution to a complicated problem !!!
It would be fun to make one of those matching games where none of the pieces fit the same-shaped hole, but rather only fit a differently shaped hole.
Whether your projects are a success or otherwise, they are always a pleasure to watch. I think this one is gonna work ! Good luck.
Cheers Mike : - )
Hey Tim and Sandra. I hope you had a lovely weekend. Well, your new project is ever so interesting as always. Keep on trying as u do bro, until you succeed. Yeah, I sent you a video about the roller beads etc. Tc. God bless you all on your lovely farm.
Thanks, Loe. Yes, there are lots of examples of how big expensive machines work - but the challenge is making one on a tiny budget
@@WayOutWestx2 Hey Tim. So nice to hear from you. Thanks. Yeah I agree with you, that one must do great things by small means. You are so right indeed. Remember if ever u need any help advice on Mauritian /Asian cuisines, I'm here, ok? Meanwhile tc. Happy farming. 💐😃👍
Thanks for the update!
Will tune in next time.
Good project. It´s some times good to role in two passes. less presure gives a little more control. Happy to see a nice ongoing project. I remember the other video :D
Thanks Lars
Ha.....I make beaded jewellery and got very excited about your bead roller title!! Well, I wasn't exactly disappointed .... ok...yes I was. Even so, your invention is spectacular. :)
I was trying to imagine _rolled beaded jewelry_ in your comment, then realised you use "beads" LOL! Confusion everywhere this morning, must have another coffee and wake up!
Ha! Yes, if you look up bead roller you learn a lot about jewellery too
Wonderful break through. The human mind is an incredible problem solver. Well done!,!
Nicely done 👍👍👍
Grand job again Tim
Thank you!
I envy the plasma cutter 😻
This is great
having a wife being a part the shop project
Promising indeed!
Thanks for the video. 👍
I did not understand most of what you said, but if all fails, you have a fancy pasta making machine. That is where my mind goes. Lol
Promising indeed!
I love bead rollers, they are such amazing machines, great for stiffening up metal sheets, making barrels, all sorts of things.
Don't you just love working with nice thick steel? Sure it's heavy but you are so less likely to screw it up beyond repair, and also a lot of the welds seem much easier on thick plate.. Just a bit of advice, lessen the amount your are raising per pass and it won't curve your metal as much. Just make multiple passes adding pressure each go till you get the right height.
"Sandra's excellent at turning handles.." So would you say she's... great at yanking your crank? :P
Ha! I'm not going there : - )
The unintended curving could be a problem for the bigger project, and rolling in small increments didn't make much difference to me - but I'll keep trying..
@@WayOutWestx2 then it could be the thickness of your metal. I'd suggest watching some videos about bead rolling sometime. I've spent a lot of time watching videos about metal working.. it was going to be my job until they told me I'm a liability thanks to my back so I can't work physical labor jobs because the workman's comp lawyers won't allow it.
I'm half crazy with ideas, your in the same gene pool I believe.
Bravo Make the crank longer for Sandra , looked like she had to brace her feet a bit.
Time to re-start the lathe project.
Do you have a UA-cam channel too?
Good luck!
You should size your corrugated rollers to consider the thickness of the material being rolled. That way when the material is passing through the rollers it has the space to be flat. I would also have infeed rollers that are flat, and out feed rollers that match the profile as well. It would force the material to stay flat.
I so read this as 'Home made bread roller'. As he was making it, I thought, 'Well, it's odd looking and it's a bit large, is he planning on feeding a small village?'
Well, I'll be bloggered. I think you have that nearly squared away. Yep, keep going.
Sounds like meldrew on a good day ,
Oh, Tim, darhling...you start talking in terms of tools, calibers, shafts etc... and, well all I can think of is the pretty grounds you live on. So, I’ll say “best of luck”!
Ha! You can't win them all.
You should be a metalwork teacher.
You have no idea how odd it is to see that someone on the other side of the world has made a mechine because you made a comment on a video. Well done. Well done indeed.
Was that you, Egon? I would have acknowledged you but I just couldn't find the comment - sorry! Thank you - I think you may have set me on the right track. (Maybe!)
@@WayOutWestx2 no worries. I just can't believe you built it let alone the multi stage inline version. Amazing
COOL!!!
You don’t give up, do you? 😄😉👍
The truth is I just had to keep plodding away on something to keep myself sane - and I couldn't think of anything else to work on
i was expecting you to reveal you made squround shafts that were round on the ends and square along the middle!
Ha! Good idea
Good stuff! Always enjoy your videos!
ps. Whatever became of your donut making machine & cart from so many moons ago?
Thank you. The doughnut cart is too heavy and needs rebuilding. Meantime other people are selling doughnuts on the market..
Well Howdie from Canada wear it gets Mighty Chilly and !!COld here to Minus 45 ther other Day Here in the SK so making projects little slower but Spring is on the Way they say so glad found ya Signed up for adventure Like You 2 My wiffee is glad too be out and helping the Best way she can too so it looks easy enough so between the 2 of us we got this keep building them and will try our best to succeed in the Projects that will come so for now Later Ya got this ya 2 little bit heavy but will last longer basics is the way it is great Plan Thks for Sharin with us
Very inventive work! But I do miss seeing your gardening, animal and homestead vids.
But the last ones were about donkeys, garlic and bees - don't they count?
@@WayOutWestx2 Lol, yes that's true!
Clever
It is a pity we are so far apart. I have a mill and lathe and I work for cold , cheap, beer.
Frank
Ha! Yes, a shame indeed : - )
I may be pre-empting you, but I guess you took into account the thickness of your sheet material when you shaped the bead rollers? Just so they don't try to squash the sheet instead of form it.
Ignore me if you already thought it through!
I did, Tony. But only by guess work. As long as it doesn't actually pinch the sheet it seems to work by a mixture of stretching and drawing in from the sides
Well that was easy enough
I also think about making one. My approach, tho, is that I don't want to blame failure of the system on multiple dodgy parts. I'll rather wait for a proper piece of iron to show up rather than trying to make a pipe, and for worse, a square pipe to work in the bearing. Than at least you know that this is not the problem to be corrected. With some luck you will not break the bearings, but why to risk.
Ah, but you are younger than me - I don't have the time to wait!
@@WayOutWestx2 and I have no time to loose, before I get so old as you are
:D
The biggest problem with us home guys making our own equipment is buying the steel as most steels come in a 6 meter length.
I'm pretty sure if you played the part of 'Mr Conductor',
I would watch Thomas as the 40 year old man that I am.
I reckon you could fill George Carlin's shoes.
Praise indeed - thank you.
You are so right. Almost as smooth as Morgan Freeman.
But, does MF have a bead roller? I bet not.
Супруга помогает! Это чётко!
I never thought that the wooden tops were real people?
You need a metalworking lathe, like, yesterday. Put it out there and I'm sure someone will donate one to you.
Yes please!
@@WayOutWestx2 Attaboy ‼️
Talking about B(r)ead: what happened to the donut-clockwork?
It needs a rebuild because it's too heavy
@@WayOutWestx2 :(
'The first step ' of any project
...clear the crap out of the way
Nice! If you want more subs, feel free to embed your video on our homemade tools forum; looks like you're one of us :-)
I make jewellery...kept waiting until the end for metal beads to pop out...instead he is creasing sheet metal.
just hook it up to the tractor pto
Where's the dough? haha
I think I know why your corrugated roller doesnt work
But it does work, James.
