Roller Tool

What is the first roller tool that is used in the pull ring video? It looks like a helpful tool to initially set the first line of spline to get started.

Also, I notice that the spline roller tool you are using in the video is a single roller and not the double roller. Is that really all that is needed for a DIY homeowner? What would the advantage be to the double roller?

That wide roller is actually a "seam" roller used in roofing that our repairman just happened to pick up when doing the video. Everyone has their own little cheat tool, though it's mostly a matter of preference. Officially, the correct tool would be our 75-063 , however take a look at the 75-019 screen tool which is a little more cost effective for home owners.
