Abstract
A manual crimping device for roof seaming purposes that includes interchangeable components to allow for myriad different crimping configurations is disclosed. Such a device (and method of roof seaming utilization therewith) permits a user a selection of many different crimping results, whether in terms of crimp angle, crimp indentations, and/or crimp folds. A two-station crimp application configuration within the subject device further permits the user the ability to deform a subject seam to a proper final result, basically providing an initial crimp operation with a separate second and subsequent crimp to the same seam until reaching final status. The interchangeable components, being at least an anvil, a blade, and a hook, allows for these myriad different results without having to utilize and thus possess such a myriad different number of manual crimpers. A manual crimping method utilizing such a versatile device for different crimping results is encompassed herewith as well.

Abstract
An apparatus for seaming roof assemblies having a modular provision of tooling stations is disclosed herein. Such an apparatus includes multiple tooling stations that may be added or removed on demand in order to facilitate different degrees of seaming engagements as needed. Such a device utilizes horizontal rollers to provide seaming of overlapping roof panel ends to reduce the potential for separation thereof after building erection has been undertaken, further impeding water egress therethrough and wind updraft damage, at least, as well. The modular device thus provides a manner of selecting specific numbers of horizontal rollers for seaming contact with metal roof panels, thereby allowing for different types of panels and end structures thereof, as well as reduce the propensity for jamming of such multiple rollers during utilization. The method of utilization of such a modular device is encompassed herein as well.
