    the wheels would have to be grippy and preloaded with come springs but it's be cheap, and then you could do pipes of infinite length.

    now have two of them in a row and you can now run any length of piping back and for in it.

    connect the rollers to a stepper motor and then you can have the spindle on the side like irving suggested.

    then you can have a nice small and strong machine instead of one 3m long.
