A method for cutting at least an outermost film of rollstock across a width direction of a film, the rollstock formed by a film sheet rolled from base end to tip end, the method including: separation step of generating a gap between the inner peripheral film and the outer layer by separating first edge portion of the outer layer from the inner peripheral film in a radial direction of the rollstock, in a state where the outer layer is remained to be rolled as a part of the rollstock; step of displacing a portion of the outer layer defining the gap in a first width direction from the first edge portion to second edge portion in the width direction; and step of cutting the outer layer across the width direction during the displacement step, while the first cutter is moved from the first edge portion to the second edge portion.

Briefly, a variety of embodiments of composite materials including part fabrication using composite materials is described.

Cutting tools are provided for scoring a hose over a fitting. The cutting tool includes a handle with a central pass-through for the hose, and a scoring mechanism adjustably coupled to the handle. The scoring mechanism includes a base member with a central pass-through for the hose, and which is adjustably coupled to the handle. The scoring mechanism further includes an arm-blade subassembly coupled to the base member. The subassembly includes a blade, and an arm with a blade-receiving recess, and a guide surface to contact and travel along a hose. The blade is coupled to the arm within the blade-receiving recess to extend a selected penetration depth from the arm. The arm is radially adjustable with adjustment of the base member relative to the handle to physically contact the guide surface to the hose and insert the blade into the hose the selected penetration depth.

A method for removing outer layer of rollstock includes: first step of cutting rollstock's outermost circumferential film in a first cut portion, the rollstock formed by a film sheet rolled from base end to tip end and the tip end temporarily fixed to an outer circumferential surface; second step of cutting the film in a second cut portion closer to the base end than the first cut portion, a length from the tip end to the second cut portion being equal to or more than one round of the rollstock's outermost circumference; and step of discarding a first cut-film piece from the first cut portion to the tip end and a second cut-film piece from the first cut portion to the second cut portion by drawing the first and second pieces with a drawing device while driving an unwinding roller mounted with a hollow portion of the rollstock to rotate.

Among other things, a piece of furniture is formed from three separate precut pieces of flat cardboard. A first one of the pieces has a bottom edge to rest on a floor with the first piece rising vertically from the bottom edge and has at least one slot at an upper edge of the first piece. A second one of the pieces has a bottom edge to rest on the floor with the second piece rising from the bottom edge and having at least one slot at an upper edge of the second piece. A third one of the pieces has a crease across the piece and at least two slots along at least one edge that is parallel to the fold. The piece of furniture is formed by mating the one slot in the first piece with one of the slots of the third piece, folding the third piece of cardboard at the crease, and mating the one slot in the second piece with another one of the slots of the third piece, with the third piece folded along the crease.

Space in a conduit having at least one cable therein which is surrounded by a duct is recovered by longitudinally cutting the duct and removing the duct from around the cable. The duct may be pulled out of the conduit and past a blade to affect the cutting, or a blade may be pulled through the conduit to cut the duct while still in the conduit.

A method for making an appetizer food product is disclosed herein. The method includes preparing a dough composition by mixing a predetermined quantity of flour, water, olive oil, sugar, salt, and yeast; flattening and/or compressing the dough composition; adding one or more layers of other ingredients to the dough composition, the other ingredients comprising at least one type of cheese and at least one of type of meat or at least one type of vegetable; rolling the dough composition and the other ingredients into a log-shaped food product; applying olive oil to the log-shaped food product; cutting the log-shaped food product into a plurality of individual rolls; twisting each of the plurality of individual rolls; and freezing each of the plurality of individual rolls for a predetermined period of time without allowing the proofing of the dough composition. An appetizer food product is also disclosed herein.

Pipe splitting apparatuses and systems including a replaceable blade, and methods therefor, are provided. In various examples, a pipe splitting apparatus includes an outer surface including a recess. A blade including a portion is disposed within the recess. A hardenable material is disposed within the recess. The hardenable material is configured to flow upon application to fill empty space within the recess and at least partially around the portion of the blade disposed within the recess. The hardenable material is further configured to harden after application to secure the portion of the blade within the recess and fix the blade to the pipe splitting apparatus.
