If you are going to make something using this principle, think of incorporating a stop device or attachment (to govern the length of the working/approach stroke) to ensure an even repeatable pressure to be applied throughout the length of the curve being produced as the material is fed through.

A consistent increment of feed through will assist in making regular smooth curves.
