I just finished building this cold mangle. The working width is 37 inches. The rollers are 3 inch diameter hard rock maple and were milled locally on a computer controlled milling machine. The handle is removable and fits on all three of the eye bolts. I can adjust the "squeeze" by tightening top eye bolts, which push down on some heavy compression springs. Building it was pretty easy except for the casting of the gears - which I ended up doing about 3 times before I got both the gear design and the casting process right. The plan is to clamp it to a table to use it.
