Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I support this machine during use? A: While it can be mounted in a robust bench vise, pairing it with the optional Magnum Bead Roller Stand provides the most stable operating platform.
Q: What does an offset flange do? A: An offset flange drops the edge of the metal down slightly, allowing a new patch panel to sit perfectly flush with the original surface for a seamless weld.
