Saw (any method) that paper roll? This will leave edge raggies that
little barely attached bits will tear off and clog up the
mechanicals. YUK!

I'm still curious how they slice 10' tall rolls used for large
production like newspapers etc without tearing up big way, less
wastages etc. I thought pushing through a roll with a knife like
those tall ream of paper chop machine wastes one side of parted rolls
bec it's "ruined" by going lopsided.

Cheers,
