I've got some 5/8" steel tubing I want to roll a bead into the end to keep a hose from slipping off. I've seen a tool to do this, but I can't remember where, when, or what it was called, or if it was home built or not. If it doesn't work on the steel tubing, I might use a piece of copper, it's for my heater hoses, I want to run solid lines as much as possible with only rubber connecting the ends. Cosmetic stuff, ya know?
So, any ideas on how to make one, or where to get one? Economical, of course. I've thought about some kind of washers on a stem, with some kind of way to put pressure on both sides, but just can't get my head around a way to do it.
