RE: [gingery_machines] slip roll machine

You got it. The downside of this type of roller is that leaves a flat
spot at each end. Commercially there are 4 roller systems where the
outside rollers are on pivots and also extend. The computer software
forms the outside edge of the sheet against the top roller so the radius
of the rolled sheet is the same through the length.
