hi,
I made my own starter rollers I bought the rollers in kit form ie rollers bearings chain and sprockits,I also used a electric motor single phase 1.5kw 4pole
1400rpm made a frame in box section also made a chain guard it works very well .

hi,
just to add if you use a electric motor make sure you can reverse rotation.
