Why buy it if you can build it?

I already have a nice 36” Roper Whitney slip roll, but couldn’t pass up this one for $150. These old machine tools deserve a good life, and this one had spent most of its in the HVAC trade. 

Need to cut a square corner, this is the best way to do it.

Recently I scored a great deal on a used Roper Whitney 4ft finger brake…

With the basic structure finished, all that was left were the details…

How do you cut 60” wide rolls of material?
