Abstract

A rectangular table 21 incorporating a series of heavy paper management rollers 12, 13, 14A, 14B, 18, and 19 that are engineered to allow the paper 10 to be drawn across said table's surface wherein a lower left hand lap joint 20A and opposing right hand upper lap joint 20B are simultaneously milled in and along the lateral edges of the passing paper 10 by the right hand lap joint milling machine 16 and opposing right hand milling machine 17 which are strategically recessed into the lateral edges of the table's surface. Ultimately, a paper 10 laminate 20 is produced through the described process which is used to form a continuous sheeting arrangement by bonding the lap joints 20A and 20B of individual vertically positioned sheets as the sheets are laminated to a prescribed surface.
