This is a rather hard to find and pretty nice old tire roller that was commonly used by blacksmiths to roll tires for wheels and rolling other miscellaneous steel and iron into curves. It is in good used condition with no cracks, breaks, or repairs that I can see or know of other than a collar being added to the end of the infeed roller. This is to keep the needle bearings in it. It turns nicely and the needle bearings seem to move as they should. The roller is about 23 inches long overall and measures little over 6 inches between the shoulders of the rollers. It works good and would be an indespensible tool to make even arches and curves in even quite heavy steel. The outfeed idler roller is adjustable for many size radii of curves. It will need a square socket hand crank or you could use a wrench to use it. It is marked Ideal No. These original blacksmith tools are increasingly hard to find in the wild or even at swap meets so if you’ve been looking for one for your shop here’s your chance. I can deliver it for free to LeSueur, MN, Baraboo, WI, Portland, IN, or Coolspring, PA, later this year. It can stay here as long as needed as long as it’s paid for. The pictures tell the story.
