In this video on using flat washers on your Bead Roller you can see the many patterns that are
available by using the simplest of materials. By lightly modifying a couple of sets of 3/4” flat washers and a variety of spacers you will be opened up to a never ending combination of patterns.

Thank you for passing on your experience. Guys like you will keep this art of metal forming alive by the next generation who are smart enough to learn from you. Thank you and please keep them coming I've learned a lot from your videos
Thanks Scott. I will be getting out some metal shaping vids after I get the sealing put up in the shop.
Thanks for watching. Jere
We really need to put a bubble around these incredibly talented old timers during this epidemic. So many of your generation are unbelievably skilled! Thank you for the video!
Hello Dad:
A lot of us old timers had to learn how to make or repair whatever we needed. If we wanted to make our car go faster we modified what we had or made something that worked better.
Thank you for your comment. Much appreciated! Be sure to subscribe for more. Jere
2yrs later and still this teaching is still valuable….timeless👍 Thank you from the future 😄
Hi David.
A lot of the stuff I know I learned in the 1960's when working at Shelby American building Cobra's. I got to learn from the best.
Thanks for watching and be sure to subscribe. Jere
Never mind the nice bead rolling, Im super impressed with the custom motorized drill attachment complete with gearbox, variable speed control, and assuming some type of foot pedal. NICELEY DONE 👍
Hello Darren:
It also has forward and reverse controlled by a switch on the drill motor. The most useful modification (not mentioned) is the movable top shaft. It allows for fine adjustments and alignment of top and bottom dies.
Thanks for watching. Hope you subscribed. Jere
I’m 53 years young. The way you have demonstrated this, I get it. Thank you so much. I will be hear agin. Thanks again.
Hello Allen:
Like Gene Winfield says "every day is a school day". I am glad when the information I put out is help full to others.
Thanks for watching. Jere
Absolutely genius Jere, so simple yet effective. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Old Silk Hat.
Take a look at the Video I uploaded yesterday and you will see them used in a different way.

Thanks again for watching. Jere
Excellent demo Jere! I very much appreciate you sharing your expertise and experience. I ordered the 19” throat Eastwood bead roller a few days ago so I’ll be watching your bead roller mod video too.
Hello Fatstrings:
Thanks for your kind words. I hope you can use some of the mods I've made to my machine on your new acquisition.
Thanks for watching. Jere
Just learned a lot and found better way to use my bead roller.
Hello Mercmad.
I'm working on a video where I will be using my Radios Turning Tool to make some special dies for the bead roller. You may enjoy this one also.
Thanks for watching. Jere
I think that you have definitely found a great use for flat washers ! The first thing that comes to mind is making floor pans for a vw bus or for patch panels for bed panels in truck beds ! Stuff that there are so many uses for and rather inexpensive to make for yourself !
Thanks Cody.
If you make a set of washers like mine you can use them with the radios to the inside for one style or turn the to the outside and get a totally different look.
Thanks for watching. Jere
Wished I’d seen this before restoring the panels in my cargo floor....
Cody, wouldn't you want at least 16 gauge for a truck bed? It's not likely that these washers could do 16 gauge, but I could be wrong
Every time I watch this demonstration, I learn something else. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Hello Guillermo.
Yes I also watch some videos several times in order to gleen more information. Sometimes it's not until you watch it several times that the whole story comes together.
Stay tuned for a video I'm working on that will show the Radios Turning Tool that I made for making my own bead roller dies.
Thanks for watching. Jere
@@jerekirkpatrick2092 Thank you sir. I look forward your tool for making bead roller dies.
Hello Jere, great ideas for more dies. I havent finished my bead roller as of yet. I had several other projects come up that I needed to work on. But i will send pictures of my bead roller based on your plans soon as i comlete it. Only thing left to complete and start rolling is the mount for my right angle drill. Your plans are easy to follow. Again thanks for your video Jere
Thanks for watching Frank.
When you finish building your bead roller you can use the dies that came with the machine as material for making dies of your own design. The stepping dies are seldom used and you can use flat washers to get the same effect.
Looking forward to seeing the picks.
Jere
I was too busy trying to figure out all of his enhancements to the bead roller to get all of the washer info... wow, impressive!
Hello Tim.
If you look at my video "Building Gene Winfield's Bead Roller" You will see all of the items that were added to my bead roller. All of the mods were added over a span of about two years as I found new ways to make it more usable.
Thanks for the comments. Jere
Great idea thanks a lot used this to make patch panels for the floor of my pickup matched the factory perfect once I got my measurements down great job keep up the good work!!!!!
Thanks Lefturns.
I'm glad that this video was help full to you. Thanks for watching.
Jere
Lo felicito. Trato de interpretar. Pero se hace entender con la exelente edición del vídeo. Desde Santiago del estero, Argentina.
That is an awesome idea. I have not been able to figured out how to make the metal to patch the metal that I need to remove from the bed of my 196 Ford F-100. Thank you very much for sharing your imagination.
Hello Guillermo.
Don't forget that it makes quite a difference when you change the spacing of the upper washers while retaining a constant width between the lower washers.
Have fun trying different profiles. Jere
Yes sir; I have a feeling that while the spacing of the lower washers should be fine, or easier to set, I will need to do a couple of trial runs with the spacing of the upper washers to fit the pattern. Thank you very much, again.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge !!!!
Hi Adel,
I always look for the simplest way to approach a project.
Merry Christmas. Jere
Jere, thanks so much for sharing your creative solutions!
Thank You Joel.
If you have a bead roller and make some flat washers try using them with a skate board wheel on the bottom.
Jere
Brilliantly demonstrated?...thank you!
Hello Clive:
Thanks. I hope this increased your tools in the tool box.
Thanks for watching. Jere
You have just enlightened me to the fact that I don't need to buy all the dies that are available. I already have a box of fender washers that will lend themselves to this process as soon as I am able to decide on a lathe. And BTW I like that you were talking and describing the process you were doing. So many videos don't have any talking in them only music, usually bad music. Another question.... I see in the description above that you might have build the bead roller that you're using. The extra functions that this one has to slide the top roller shaft out or in, and the ability to raise and lower the top roller by a lever make sense. Do you know if the Eastwood and other models have these features? Thank you.
Hello Roger:
You can also use the dies that came with your machine. Just use them as stock to make them any shape you need. Stepping dies are seldom used so make them into usable dies.
None of the flat plate type bead rollers have the features that you see on my machine. All of the modifications were made by me. You can find a set of plans along with a DVD for making all the mods. yourself. Look in the description and go to my web sight. Click on Plans and DVDs.
You can also look at my video "Building Gene Winfield's Bead Roller" And you will see all the mods.
Thanks for watching. Jere
Why buy a 3/4 washer and bore It to 7/8 and not just buy a 7/8 washer? Enjoying your videos! Thanks
Hi Doug.
In order to maintain 2" center between shafts.
Jere
great stuff! a quick tour of your bead roller would be much appreciated.
Hi again Da Os.
Look at Building Gene Winfield's Bead Roller. That video shows everything that was done to make it a usable machine.
Thanks again for watching. Jere
@@jerekirkpatrick2092 thanks, i found that clip just after posting the comment - look before you leap, eh. you made some really great mods, very inspirational.
Hi @@daos3300
There are actually 4 or 5 mods. Do just one or two at a time when they will do you the most good. After a while your machine will be fully modified.
Thanks. Jere
What a great idea. Thanks.
Hello Matt:
Be sure to subscribe. One video that I have on the list to do is one where I will be using flat washers along with skate board wheels. You will probably find that one interesting.
Thanks for watching. Jere
Great information-Thank You Very Much ✅👍
Hello Michael:
I hope you will be able to get some use from this info.
Jere
The harbor freight bead roller has metric shafts. I ordered a cast iron V belt pulley with the metric bore for a die. Good info Jere
Thanks for a new idea Tim.
I have some old pulley's laying around and will give it a try at some point. Outside the box thinking is great.
Jere
I love the concept. I can definitely use this to increase the bead roll shapes and designs for my machine. You've certainly opened up a whole new realm of possibilities for me. So for that Thanks. Did doing this mar the aluminum?
Hello Oktane:
No material was harmed in this video. The surface finish on the die is what will be imparted to the surface of the material being worked. If the corners are broke and the contact portion of the die is polished there should be no marring.
Thanks for watching and be sure to subscribe and ring the bell. Jere
This is awesome! I like your idea for stepping
Thanks Afred.
I will be doing more videos on the uses of flat washers in the coming months. Thanks for watching.
Jere
Cool! I have already subscribed so I'll be looking out for them. Also thought I would mention that Gene Winfield brought you up when he was talking about his bead roller, I'm not good with names so I thought it was pretty cool I was able to find you on here haha. Keep up the good work!
If you are around San Jose CA on December 16th or 17th Gene will be teaching a metal shaping class and I will be doing a demo both days to give him a rest. When I talked to him yesterday (before leaving for Japan) I mentioned that I would be doing one of the demos on the bead roller with a set of dies given to me by Ron Covell that we used in a demo in Santa Cruz last month. Hope you can make it.
Jere
I was at his class in Mojave last month when he showed us the one you built him. I'd love to attend the class at Gambino's, unfortunately I won't have the money this time. How often do you do demos?
Several times a year. Somewhat randomly. I have classes at my shop the third weekend of the month starting in the spring.
Jere
Jere Great video thank you. I just got my first bed roller and now I'm trying to learn how to form body molding for a car. I am wondering if I use two washers with a spacer that would touch the metal being formed with the opposite forms on the other shaft could I create a molding with a ridge on either side with the center being pressed flat. The bottom spacers would have to rise up between the two upper washers.
Hi Joe.
If you work one side at a time you should not get deflection in the middle. I would have to see a profile of the finished part in order to determine my approach.
Make several practice pieces and refine the look as you go along.
My machine has many adjustments that allows me to change a profile without changing dies. Look at my video "Beading with Flat Washers". You may get some ideas from that.
Thanks for watching and please subscribe. Jere
Are you broaching a keyway in the washers ? Are you heat treating the washers ?
Hello Kerry:
I weld a small piece of key on each washer and then make sure that both sides are flat. The washers are not heat treated. If used on aluminum they will last a long time.
Thanks for watching. Good question. Please subscribe. Jere
thank you! subbed because so much potential here thanks!
Hello Jacob E.
Thanks for watching. A lot of the replies on this video have been for making floor pans and for pick up trucks beds. There are many uses for variable spacing of dies.
Jere
i am wondering how i could use this to make fluting in armor pieces
Hi Jacob E.
With the varied shapes in armor it would be difficult to use the bead roller. I would make and use stake tools for doing such. The larger diameter coil springs make great stake tools. And remember to never use springs as a stricken tool.
Thanks Jere
thanks for the tips, I was thinking I could rol some beads then form the piece into various forms and then reshape any distorted beads. I have such a nice collection of sheet metal tools i may still a simple one just for some versatility.
Thank you wish I could buy them
Hello Rick:
You can make them with a belt sander or grinder. Make a mandrel that will fit in your hand drill and do it that way.
Thanks for watching. Jere
@@jerekirkpatrick2092 okay thank you
I want to edge banding to 10mm. the 90 degree angles... My job is the round square, the maximum diameter is the 30 to 45 mm reduced. so how much bedroll wheel diameter required
The diameter of the wheels is determined by the center to center measurement of the shaft of your machine.
Jere
@@jerekirkpatrick2092 thank you so much for your valuable reply. can I send you the drawing of my job for better understanding...
Yes. you can send it to jere@saber.net. @@devchandpatel3671
Good ideas, thanks for sharing.
Thanks James.
I like doing things just a little bit different.
Jere
Great tips cool video
Thanks black88coupe.
I'm glad you liked it and hope there was some new information you got from it.
Jere
Nice tutorial. Although the shiny metal makes it somewhat difficult to see the profiles. And really nice build on the bead roller and accessories. But please, eliminate the distracting nursery rhyme music.
An interesting video for me as I've been gathering parts for awhile to build a bead roller. Thankyou! 👍 You've a new subbie. Using a Harbor freight style foot control on the Milwaukee and does it have plenty of power? I have a 1hp 90 volt DC with an angle gearbox I was going to use but that Hole Hog just looks so simple.
Thanks Van Der Hoof.
The Milwaukee drill has plenty of power. Especially with the 30 to 1 gear reduction.
Thank you for watching. Jere
where did you get the washers that have the key on the inside?Thanks
Hello Chevy:
I TIG welded a piece of 1/8 X 1/4 stock to the inside and filed them smooth. You can see the process in "Kick Plates #2.
Thanks for watching. Jere
excelente amigo DE VENEZUELA
Hello Ricardo.
Thanks for watching. Jere
Fantastic profiles////////
El Camino. Ranchero beds !
Thanks for watching Douglas.
I taught a class in Santa Cruz a couple of weeks ago with Ron Covell and showed a couple of more profiles using flat washers and a couple of dies I made for the 41 Pontiac video. I will be making a video on how they were used later on this winter.
I'm glad you liked this video. Jere
Howdie from Canada SK were it gets Mighty Chilly Yesterday Was Minus 33 Brrr that wind was Nasty Stuff Any way Sir Jere if that's ok wood like to know what kind of steel is these Washers made out of ? if that is ok and Signed up cause ya Look like ya Have this Under control and ya don't need to be Rocket Scientist to make these so Carry on keep them comin when my shop gets little bit warmer wood like to try and make what ya have done lots of floors to rebuild in my old cars 28 Esexx and 47 Dodge 3 ton and my 1989 Firebird had v6 now got v8 fuel injection in it she's goin to fly Ya I'm old ha ha still can play with my stuff Had 3 Heart attacks and The Good Lord Ain,t Done with me Yet Ha ha and my wiffee,s truck old Cornbinder International in the Year of 1954 don't see them much any more since the war was over they all got scrapped we put old 5.8litre in it with automatic lots of fun and my Toy is Garden tractor with v8 send you photos of my work to come if that wood be ok thanks for sharin Sir your Ideas with us Later
will this idea work on 19G mild steel?
Hello Cuda.
Yes 19 ga can be worked with even the cheaper bead rollers. You may have to achieve the final depth by making several passes while increasing the depth of each pass. If you drill and tap your frame and use a spreader like you see on my machine, it will greatly increase the strength of the frame, and increase the depth you can roll with each pass. I will try to get to making more dies soon.
Thanks for watching. Jere
Just subbed. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Dude.
It's like me, simple but effective. Saves buying a different set of rolls for each width.
Jere
I ordered my first bead roller today. I'm so pumped.
If you are getting a plate type bead roller my plans will make it a much more usable machine.
Jere
Jere Kirkpatrick I saw that I saved video. When my budget allows it I’ll be in touch.
Thanks Dude.
I'm editing a video right now on powering my slip roll with my bead roller. Stay tuned.
Jere
I here a lot if sniffing. Sharing is caring 😁😁
Hello Indy:
It has been noted.
Thanks. Jere
Hmmm. Ive got a few ideas for this....
Thanks Daniel:
I'm glad you got some new ideas from this video.
Thanks for watching. Jere
AAAAAAAGH.. SNIFFY... GET THE SNIFS EDITED... OR SUFFED OUT !!!!!
отец я согрешил, что мне делать?
nope, cannot listen to that nasty sniffing for 25 minutes.
Sniff-alufagus
No kidding.. super talented and informative but the constant sniffling made it unbearable
