I've always run the grain along the length of the form because it's pretty hard to do it the other way!

> A year or so ago I did a build thread on SFA for an LPP and I included the two pictures attached here which support the idea of pushing off the paper tube with another tube. I actually stayed with the usual 1/16 wire as a mandrel and brass tube. The label 'Tube Roller' is not just for the photo' it has been on that bit of wire for years. Before I put on a label I was searching for a smooth clean bit of 1/16 wire every time I made a tube. In the build thread I mentioned that I thought it better to run the tissue grain along the length of the tube. That was a recent discovery for me but from an earlier post on this thread I gather Ray Harlan has done it for years!
