    The main drawback about that bead roller is that the throat isn't very deep, which would limit where you could put beads on a larger piece. But for the money it would do lots of smaller stuff.

    It looks like it only comes with one set of rolls. It might be better to put that money toward a deeper throated bead roller; which would be more versatile.

    The ultimat goal is to have many rollers each set up for 1 operation. That one looks to be for rolling edges to make wheel tubs or tanks

    That is a good buy. Have used a 1964 model for 25 years and made a gage and guide for it. Never try to roll beads in anything over 18ga.
