Hi, this looks like it's for smoothing wings on stealth aircraft. Are you looking for an English Wheel / Wheeling Machine?

I have made myself a handheld roller planisher with a 600mm reach, you need to eat 3 shredded wheat for breakfast when you use it! But is brilliant for removing ripples in thin sheet left from tig welding (aluminium).

well it is like an English Wheel / Wheeling Machine but allows you to roll/flatten smaller tubes.
and that is the problem. i have a tube we need to planish the weld out of.

how small a tube can you do on yours?
and would you let me borrow/rent it for an hour or so..

Not keen on lending it out but you could knock one up in a day, have a look here:

Its got all the details you should need.
Box is 40mm and anvils are 50mm so with shorter anvil holders it would go inside a 110mm pipe.
