* There are many ways to roll the leading edge. One possible solution is to buy one of the white powder coated steel closet rods at home depot, then go to the tools section and buy a socket that fits snuggly into it. Drill two or three 1/8th holes through the rod and socket (with a tungsten carbide drill bit) and pop rivet the rod to the socket. Using a socket wrench with a universal joint, you can easily exert plenty of rolling force into the rod. Tape the skin to the rod using heavy duct tape. | |||
