	* 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.		* There are many ways to roll the leading edge.
