Thanks for all the comments and suggestions. MNSmith, I finally did splurge for a beadroller. I went with the cheapest model Woodward Fab had and and controller motor from Eastwood. It is probably about the same thing as the models you referenced... not a heavy-duty unit but good enough for me and my skill level and usage. I went ahead and spent some time building a stand for it while I was at it. I kept pushing the beadrolled parts off until I absolutely needed it....same as the english wheel.
