    Am I right in guessing that this item works the way a tailors sleeve roll works? That is what I learned to use to open and press seams.

    I agree. I went to Lowes and bought a length of 1/2 round. I cut it down myself into 3 different sections and covered them with muslin, just to avoid rough spots that might catch. It was a lot cheaper than a set I saw for sale online.
