I have the Cleveland EF60 tool - used it on all my skins ..large and small .. and on inspection covers .. I like how they finish off the edge ...

I bought the Cleaveland vise grip edge tool after failing to figure out how to get the Avery 2 rollers on a disk one to work. I used it on all of the overlaps on the fuselage and they came out looking very nice and tight.

Just remember to roll the edge before you dimple! Go slow with it or it will try to steer off the edge depending on how tight you have it set.

Default Sounds like the EF60 is the winner.

Looks like the edge roller form Cleveland is the most popular if you are going to use one. Does anybody have a used one for sale?
