Nice tool, but you can build a similar tool yourself:
Just take some half round styrene rod, glue it on styrene sheet and put a wooden block (for stability) under it - doing it twice and you can build a tool in whatever size you need. Plus you can adapt to scale or different kinds of
corrugated sheets just by changing the diameter and distance of the rods. Did it myself, worked smoothly!

0Your better off using round rather than half round the tool I made produced a better profile than the half round version. Having said that the tool does look pretty good.

Bill,
You are absolutely right! This tool would help tremendously in making a very nicely detailed surface of a Quonset hut
