Rollers Shorts
Description: The Albany Rollers were a minor league baseball team based in Albany, Oregon. In 1904, the Rollers became members of the Class D level Oregon State League during the season, hosting home games at the Albany Base Ball Park. The Albany Rollers came into existence when the Vancouver Soldiers were forced to relocate to Albany after a territory dispute with the Pacific Coast League. The "Rollers" moniker corresponds to the timber industry, which was a strong local industry in the era.
Description: If you are a mechanical engineer, web handler, physicist, or life the life of rollers, webs, ball-bearings then you will like this design. My Dad is a lifelong web handling specialist optimizing tension, velocity, and sag for the best possible machine design. This under-wrapping tension example is a classic dry engineering joke...that need not explained to those engineering nuts.
