Clay Slab Roller Update

I built this Clay Slab Roller a few months ago, since then it has had a workout and the roller has failed. The roller was made of plywood disks and with the amount of pressure put on the middle of the roller one of glue lines has given way. It was actually one of the original plywood glue lines that has failed. There is a video on my channel showing the roller build.
The fix was straight forward. After re-gluing the roller I turned it down a little with the original jig I used to make the roller, and then glued it into a piece of PVC pipe. I'm confident this will work now as the pipe and plywood together make for a very rigid roller. If I have to do any more updates I will video it to keep any interested viewers up to date.
I don't see any more issues though - but you never know!
I had some sound issues, too much sibilance that I struggled to eliminate in post production. I use a Canon 5D mk2 and just added a Rode shotgun mic so if anyone has any advice on settings I would appreciate it.
This wasn't the most exciting video but if anyone was to build a similar machine to this then they would need a heads up on the roller issue! I hope you enjoy the video anyway and as always I'm happy to answer any questions.

Hey Neil
Only just came across this on the channel today. Your height adjustment is exactly what I need for the rebuild of my drum sander. Right now I adjust the bed up and down, much easier to adjust the roller. Thanks for the idea and the inspirational channel.
David
Thank you. I was searching for making a roller to make flakes with medium dough. I was thinking of two rollers and you have showed with a single roller. Thank you for the beautiful idea.
Ahh PVC, how I so love you. Great little update, especially since watching the first one. Good job Neil.
Thanks Rob! :)
PVC was a great idea. Could be applied to drum sanders and other tools that need true straight drum rollers. Really enjoying your channel. Thanks for posting friend!!!
Looks like a good fix!
Not a fail, only a chance to play that song again. Well done!
Great solution! Also great to hear you speaking :D
Thanks! I found it a little easier to talk to the camera this time - shame the audio was a little poor at the start though. I need to figure out the best settings for my new mic!
I didn't pay too much attention when I watched it first because I was going after the words but now that I gave it a second listen I can hear some hissing/static noise. What is your mic?
It's a Rode Videomic (shotgun), I haven't had chance to figure it out properly yet. I think, if I remember rightly I put the volume up in camera when I was talking as the first recording seemed to come out low in volume, even though I was only a couple of meters away from the camera. I will work it out - I just need to spend some time with it.
Humm... I have the Videomic Pro and it has a +20dB boost button. You can turn the volume in the camera completely down, with just one volume step and the mic will capture everything nicer with the +20dB. This way there is much less static noise than when recording at 0dB level at the mic and half way in the camera settings. The problem I guess is the sound board of the camera that might not be great. Just professional expensive DSLR's have good sound boards... But anyway, maybe your mic doesn't have that +20dB button but you can still improve the quality sound by getting the mic closer to the source. You can use some random tripod and get a way to attach the correct screw for the mic and position the tripod closer to you without interfering with the image. And get a high quality sound extension cable with the little male and female jacks (or go wireless but that might be too expensive for your case ahah).
Mine doesn't have the +20dB button, I decided to go for the intermediate version of this mic thinking it would be good for my needs but should have probably gone for the pro version. I will try it out some more and if I don't get any better results I will try an extension cable. Thanks for your help :)
Excellent solution. Looks good to.
Hi from Argentina... It is a wonderfull idea to roll puff pastry!
Problem solved. Brilliant work Neil and a great video mate 👍🏼👍🏼
Much better 👍
I'm watching your videos back to back and loving every minute. Thank you for sharing the amazing things you make, and taking the time to make the videos so entertaining to watch. You are my new Jimmy Diresta. :)
Thank you very much Bernhard! High praise indeed! ;)
thanks a lot men!
Great! Thanks for sharing!
This is just brilliant.
I wanna see if I can use this technique to make a machine that will die cut, emboss and print! I am very hopeful!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. May Allah reward you for your your generosity.
Gracias Amigo excelente video.
Wow that router jig is super clever!
Thank you! :) I saw something similar a few years ago - I really don't remember where but I logged it in the grey matter.
好厲害
家裡的壓麵機是上進下出式
我也想要一台平坦式的壓麵糰機
看過影片比較有概念了
謝謝分享
Thank you for sharing! Great video, I learned a lot.
i think this is a great idea for pizza doughs and breads and some savory
Brilliant!
your videos are amazing! congrats!
Seems as though the original could have used a thicker bar at the center, too, so it wouldn't have deflected as much. It's probably doing it less, but still doing it.
Thanks for sharing !
You could roll bread dough into a pizza!
Excellent video BTW.
Thank you Paul! Pizza dough with bits of clay on it - yum! ;)
Pask Makes ha ha! I look forward to more of your videos!
Yes, it is the perfect dough roller.
Very clever way of making a roller. I wonder if it could be used for intaglio or block printing.
Thanks! I think I got the idea from a video I saw long ago - really not sure where (something similar at least). I couldn't say whether it would work for block printing, but maybe though!
I'm thinking the same thing.
Me to!
If it comes back again try 10 GA. aluminum pipe over a ply-stack core. Great design!
Thank you.
No worries Robert! :)
I didn't find the plans of the slab roller on your web site. Aren't you buying?
Do you have a plan for this on your website
Отлично!
Если я правильно понимаю, это приспособление для изготовления керамической плитки.
Можете снять весь процесс, от замеса глины до обжига?
... В любом случае, спасибо за ваши видео и мотивацию к работе руками.
Спасибо! Yes I believe that is what it is for - making tiles. I don't have any experience in clay I just built the machine.
Muito bom !!!
Obrigado!
Would you be willing to share the design plans? I'd love to make one as a dough sheeter.
I have a feeling that concrete filled pvc pipe would have been an option too
Why not fill the pvc with concrete or reinforced concrete? it will hold the shape better than a wood core and much easier to make
Why not use a metal pipe?
i think if you used a thicker shaft you might not of had such a deflection in the drum. other than that it is a great job! Keep doing what you are doing, its GREAT!!
Thank you William! Although a thicker shaft would've helped I believe it would still flex unless I went with something substantially thick. I think this solution worked out well in the end - I just didn't realise quite how much pressure went on to the middle of the roller when I built it. :)
your design can be used as a dough sheeter
What do you use the clay slabs for? Maybe it's in a video I haven't seen yet.
The Slab roller was built for someone else, I don't work with clay myself! I believe the main thing they use it for is making tiles. :)
so you reckon that pvc pipe will stop it from breaking again ? i kinda don't, try an iron pipe next time it fails
There is no way it will break again. The mass of the plywood roller fits that snuggly there is nowhere for the pipe to flex. For the pipe to break it needs to be able to bend to a certain point - which now it can't. ;)
I also saw that a maker used a PVC pipe and filled it up with quick-dry cement to make it strong. This is what I wanna do too because this is easier for me.
That should be a permanent fix. If not, then probably thick wall pipe is the next step.
Hi! It’s awesome :)
And really good solution.
Where can I buy the plans for making one myself? :)
I search for them in your website and didn’t find them :(
Need so a contraption to roll nd laminate pastry dough.... Same concept i think 🤔
do you have a materials list and diagrams with dimensions?
а что сразу не взять трубу металлическую круглую от того же стола
Do you sell these? I would be interested
why would you call this and other works 'CLAY SLAB" - no clay in it> - please explain i am not familiar with this term
yeah - i should have waited to the end of this video to understand. sorry. no need to answer my Q from before
Very good job but a rolling pin can do that too
Yaaaaa....o sea hay que tener un taller para modificarlo.....
Sir, could you make me one of that for purchase thanks
An axis of larger diameter would have prevented the break. Good job
Thanks for the input but a larger axle would've helped but wouldn't have solved the problem - unless the axle was very substantial. :)
Olá me venda a planta
Why not just use a smaller diameter and fill it with concrete?
How is the modified version holding up?
I only got feedback the other day and it's going great! :)
Poco práctica
Looks like a good fix!
