End Stop Screw
fitted for producing consistent bends and circles/arcs when rolling.
Rolling (picture 3 above) is accomplished by repeatedly passing the material backwards and forwards through machine (between side rollers and winding handle roller). As this is done, a gradual increase of pressure on the main handle tightens radius on each pass through machine.
For bending operation (picture 2 above), material is placed between the Square or Diamond Shaped Former and the Side Rollers. Lever is operated to gradually bend to required angle. Angle of bend achievable 180 degrees to 60 degrees.
Riveting (picture 1 above) is simply achieved by placing a rivet into pre-punched holes of materials to be joined and then placing material between the riveting posts on the tool. Use the lever to squeeze the rivet and hence form joint.
