Does anyone have this roller?

It's the one with 4 very large discs, and slots for BHB mandrels. I just can't seem to get the shape right, either they aren't round or I can't get the sides smooth. I end up playing around so much the bead release breaks. And that's only on the smallest cavity.

I tried the big one but couldn't keep it hot enough not to crack....hmmm maybe I need a bigger torch  ;D

You didn't come across at all pushy :), I was a bit ambiguous.

Right ladies, I shall be expecting to learn from several reliable sources on the 19th!
