jgkurz Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I have all my pipes beaded. It eliminates the hassle of pipes popping off. Thanks for sharing!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e_racer1999 Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 A lot cheaper than the vise one, that's for sure. Excellent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjhines Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 That is the shiznits.. What a cheap and creative way to do this. The last I looked a "proper" beading tool kit was $600. I will definitely try this one. Thank you for posting this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New-to-240z Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Anyone want to make one for us guys that can't weld . . . I'll pay for shipping and parts and labor hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kellysautosport Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 I looked at this thread like 5 times before i actually clicked that link. I am so glad that i clicked it. Now I can go and make me a new tool to add to my box of tools that I might only use once but refuse to part with. I remember that exact issue with my turbo BMW. Dang on IC pipes blowing off under boost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoneStarS30Z Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 I got to see it before the link went nutso. Managed to find a few pics on google that are nearly identical to the link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ransomnotes Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Has anyone tried this yet? I was wondering how hard it is to rotate the pipe. Doesn't seem like it would be that easy. I gave it a go, but I can't weld, so I tried JB Weld. Didn't work, and the washer broke loose. I think the vice grips I was using were too small anyway.

LoneStarS30Z Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 I wouldn't imagine it'd be that hard. Clamp, then unclamp, rotate, clamp again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony D Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Yeah, the photos of the thing in action kind of should stop the 'does this thing work, anybody tried it yet' question. Someone took photos for the original site... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
