The Bead Roller

Hi All,

I brought one of my tools in from my home workshop for you to try out; its called a bead roller.

Take a look at this demonstration of a machine very similar to mine:



And another demo showing how to tip an edge that goes around a curve (you can think of the bead roller as a metal folder that can do curves as well as straight lines):


And while you might use the bead roller to tip the bottom edge of your fuel tank panel or add a sharper highlight line the image below shows how you might use the bead roller to create a contour model in landscape architecture or for architectural models:


See you in the workshop on Wednesday!

Regards
