The Corus/Carp Spirit tables are cheap and roll perfectly acceptable food baits.

They are the same as the ones I've just listed. They are actually ok for feed baits. I wouldn't fancy rolling pop ups on them but for everything else they are fine.

Be fine for me then mate, I dont really roll my own popups very often, and roll my hookbaits by hand anyway. Looked a bargain really compared to the Gardner ones

There is a company called cut tail baits,they make rolaball bait makers in all shapes and sizes.
I've not used them but I've got there Cork ball pop up maker and it's superb and it's cheaper than any other brand I've seen...

To give the table more weight ( top section) use a thick piece of MDF.

This is based around the carp spirit tables. ( and many other brands that look identical)

Turn the top section upside down and insert wood dowels Inyo the 13 mm wide plastic holes and glue in place. Aim for a tight fit and ensure they don't stick out proud.

Measure the layout of the centre of the holes ( dowels) on to the MDF.

Drill pilot holes in the MDF.

Screw the MDF into the rolling table top piece.

Get a couple of handles from B and Q and bolt these onto the MDF. ( midway in the process) ie before screwing MDF to rolling table top.

they are pretty poor to start with

mine is screwed to boards and then i had to sand the moulds flush in places
tbh your better off getting the smaller 1 piece units from other places to get over this issue

If you google " fishdeal rolling table" its literally right there....

they're terrible for any sort of quantity or heavy usage though, bought one for hookbaits as shilham chip like a chipmunk and it lasted a fortnight, it pains me to say I'll have to keep buying shilham blades as gardner dont do 15mm and we moved onto that size of bait. joy.

base section on an MDF frame set at a 30 degree angle so the baits roll out the bottom, top ''hopper'' made from an old gardening tray so cut a slot into so my sausages can roll intp the top of the rolling table.

top half of the rolling table i attached to a thick slab of MDF with some handles on the top, up and down and i have perfect boilies and a fast roll rate when all my mix is gunned into sausages.

the tables do take some sanding and shaving to get spot on, but mine are like butter now.
i dont use this for hookbaits only bulk boilies.
as mentioned below the 1 piece tables are much better for hookbaits as they're more uniform

My fishdeal table has been very good but only rolled about 30 kg since having it.

I can manage 5 sausages at once.

It goes in the dishwasher every few months and comes out looking new.
