Abstract
A measuring and cutting machine for floor covering which is portable and adjustable to accommodate varying widths of carpet and which is articulated or pivoted along its extent for ease in movement through crowded locations. The improved measuring and cutting machine may be brought to the site of large carpet rolls to measure and cut from the rolls without requiring movement of the rolls to a measuring and cutting area. The improved machine may make use of in addition a flotation principle which aids in movement of the floor covering through the machine to enable operation of the machine by a single operator.
