Karl and Paul, and others,
I made a copy of the plans for the tube beader that was in contact
mag a
few years ago intending to make one myself, but never did. A Fedex
machinist who was in my a/p class in Memphis opined that it wasn't
the
best he had seen, but might work for awhile, he wanted to beef it
up,
but we never got around to it. I found the drawing, and if you like
will
send it to you, (wish I could scan if, I could fax it), so send me
whatever works best to get it to you and I will send it to you.
Email me
at cardmarc@charter.net to let me know

Please mail me a copy Marc.

Will do Paul,
Plans were in Contact issue 60, page 5. Is Contact still being
published?
Article says he used it on tubes from 1/2" to 1-1/2" made bead up to
.045" high bead, but .030 was more than enough. He also states the tube
must be in the soft annealed state. All on one page.

If you have not got it yet - here is the page out of "Contact" . I am
suprised
no one had this issue - Perry Micks duct is the cover article' -
Vance PS "contact" has been taken over by a new editor, and the first
new issue has been shipped - starting slow but looks promising - Vance
Vance sent the whole page but at 300K it was too big to publish.
Here is just the drawing.

I don't know what happened that drawing got trashed.
Lets try it again.
