Derick, I have the same problem with my Hobo break. Going to do what you have done. Same with the Shrink an Stretch, thank you kindly. Terry

All good! Thanks. The brake doesn't like 18 gauge which is what I use all the time. The 1" square tube helps. Use what you got whenever you can.

Nice

That's the way it is with some of those lower priced tools, they just need some beefing up, a little reinforcement to turn them into good tools, you can add power to your bead roller with a windshield wiper motor and a foot switch.

I might have to try that. Thanks

[@michaelgillespie1206]

@@coldstreamrodshop there are videos on KZbin that show the steps to take, Iron Trap Garage might have one, I don't remember, but I've seen at least one.

Sometimes you have to make do with what you have until you can afford better. As skills improve we outgrow this stuff and we get better machines and our skills improve.
