Looking for photos (Roller Stand)

I am trying to get a bunch of those stupid projects out of the way and get my shop more in line. I have a really nice roller that was salvaged from a treadmill. It has about 1/2" round shafts on the end that have a hole in them and are about 1" long. I would like to see some ideas for a roller stand base. I want to adjust it up and down to use on diffrent tools and I would love for it to fold flat so it can store easily. Any tips, hints, photos or general ideas would be great. I would like someting decent and not just hammered togather 2x4's. Thanks~

Lee,

I bought 4 of these at Home Depot for $19 each. They work well, are sturdy and adjustable. They also have little brackets that you can flip up to keep a board from sliding off the roller. I can go out later and take a pic in my shop if you want. The main unit has the roller, adjusting lever, base pipe and feet. There is a shorter pipe that connects the back set of feet to the main pipe at the adjuster lever, IIRC. It also folds flat for easy storage.

Now what is the fun in it if I can't make it for twice the cost and hours of work?? Maybe I should go price these things out, Eh??

I did have an idea about a "Rockler" like design, but using some t-track to adjust it up & down.

Well, the ones like that here, in Japan (imported from the USA, made in China ) are about $40 to $50 each, so I made one.

Sorry I do not have a pic of it, but it is just a simple thing like this....



I bought the roller for about $10, and made the stand up for about $5, well, that and a welder etc.

I think if they are $19, you would be ahead money and time wise to buy them.

Cheers!

I was sure I had a pic....
