Re: Star Roller

Hmmm...  I'd have to disagree.

I built a star roller much like the vibrating version Skylighter used to
sell.
I had $29.00 in the DC reel-to-reel tape drive motor, $30.00 in electronics,
and about $40.00 in steel and the stainless stock pot.

That doesn't quite come up to $250.00

The most expensive material I bought was the castable 90-durometer
polyurethane rubber (at $22.00/ half-pint) from which I cast twenty-plus
eccentric drive rollers.
Each rolling machine takes but one, and I gave the rest away to friends
wanting to build their own.
