Abstract: In embodiments of the present invention improved capabilities are described for a paper roll resizing system. The paper roll resizing system may include a shafted roll stand that suspends a roll of paper mounted horizontally, wherein the shafted roll stand is fixed to a machine housing and is adapted to spin the roll of paper. Alternatively, the roll stand suspends the roll of paper mounted horizontally from two chucks on opposite ends of the roll. The system further includes a cutting tool movably mounted to the roll stand, wherein the cutting tool comprises at least one of a milling head, a planing head, a circular saw, and a laser cutting tool. A controller (PLC) may adjust the position of the cutting tool with respect to the roll of paper held by the roll stand.

Abstract: This disclosure concerns a paper roll kit and a clamshell packaging thereof wherein the clamshell packaging includes a handle. Rolls of material dispensed from the clamshell dispenser are dispensed without opening the dispenser. Further, the clamshell dispenser contains at least two compartments, one for the roll material and one for utility items.

Abstract: System and apparatus of the present invention provides a paper roll kit that includes a core adapted to receive utility elements. The core is rotatable along an axis of rotation, which may be coincident with the axis of the core. A length of paper may be wrapped around the outside of or inside the core about the axis of rotation. Likewise, a paper roll may be placed in an outside tube with or without a slot so as a portion of the length of paper may be dispensed by rotating the core about the axis of rotation. The hollow space inside the core may facilitate storage of utility elements in it. Further, one or more caps may be provided for storing the utility elements; the one or more caps may also act as a cover to the core.
