Local place to roll a bead on a 2" pipe?

Looking for a place (pref in San Leandro to San Jose strip of East / South Bay) I can walk in and ask to roll a bead on a short 2" pipe and walk out 10-30 minutes later a $20 or two lighter with it done.

I need only one end of the pipe bead rolled.

Anyone know of such a place?

You can buy a cheap bead roller from harbor freight, fwiw.

Mike --

2" diameter aluminum
Length is about 2.25 to 2.5"

It came 3" long rolled both sides, but it needed to be shorter than 3". Cut off one bead and I have to re-seat it every month or two even if I crank down on the Zebra clamps.
