Noone wants the cybersex fender roller!

Anyways, yeah, mine is an Eastwood. They're very handy to have around, but keep in mind it's pretty much a one or two-time use on a given car, unlike most tools yiou can use for maintenance. I have one because we needed one for race prep, and I loan it out pretty much whenever because it puts a few bucks in the club coffers and then covers gas for meeting up with whoever's running to or from Reno; I recouped the cost on it a while back.

That said, $250 is a smoking deal on one. We paid $400 for just the roller years and years ago. If you're going to be building cars and you're going to have friends over working on theirs, it can be pretty handy to have around. It definitely takes some finesse, so practice on something beaterish if you can (I practiced on my wagon, lol).
