A fixed finger plate cooperatively associated with a respective cam housing and having a fixed finger fixably attached thereto is juxtaposed proximate to each of the cam housings and fixably attached to the shaft. A cam follower having a finger shaft that has a movable finger attached thereto is cooperatively associated with each of the cams. The distal end of each of the movable fingers and the distal end of each of the fixed fingers are capable of forming a space therebetween for contacting engagement and containment of a core suitable for the convolute disposal of a web material thereabout.
