As long as you have the travel it's not too hard to do it manually. Takes a long time though.
Making the grooves wasn't too hard for us, I was referring more to putting a 1" ID through the entire 26" tube, is there a way to do that too? I'm not a very skilled machinist at all, I just know enough to get by. Does 254 drill out the middle of their rollers?
