[QUOTE="tsaints1115, post: 283838, member: 10007"] It's a rigid, deep throated,hand or motor turned device that has a male and female round die on the open ends. You would lay out lines with a marker, slide the sheet into the roller, a clamp is turned to put pressure on the dies, and the the crank is driven and the sheet is guided through the device and the dies press a V or U shaped groove into the metal. These grooves increase rigidity by a huge amount. I got experience using one working on street rods. With .125 it will take several passes but with patience it will work. [/QUOTE]
