rod rollers/lathe

[krazyfisher]

I am after a set of rollers for rod binding and maybe a lathe in the future.
Where can I buy this gear? what should I look for and how much should I spend.

I am only starting will start with a coouple of repairs on some old rods than move on to building a rod.

thanks for the help

Krazyfisher, i built myself a lathe a while back, works great, i posted pics and stuff in the rod building section so do a search. For rollers i used the biggest size sliding door track rollers and just fitted a big rubber o-ring on them. Other options are old roller blades, toy wheels etc. I reckon the roller blades would be fancy given the bearings but at the same time what i did works fine and i'm wrapping under power as well. Send me a pm if you want any other info.
