    Default Man......

    I had a great idea for a tool today, but have no idea how to implement it. Essentially taking the cobbled together cold side aluminum pipe bead forming tool (made from a pair of vice grips, part of an exhaust clamp, a big washer, and some welding) and making an interchangeable jaw/size setup. Kind of a cheap hand bead forming "kit" with sizes ranging around like 2 through 3.5" in .25 increments from 2 to 3 then 3.5. I think it would be an awesome hit with small FI type shops, but how to make it?

    Find a local "pattern shop" and meet with them discussing making a proto type... then have a demo made and then decide if u can back urself or if u need to shop for a money backer (sponsorship businesses that would likely carry the product)... then go from there.
