I have 5 rollers or bars on my frame. The take up roller for the finished quilt and the roller below it to keep the quilt at the correct level. Then at th front of the frame there is the roller for the backing fabric, the roller for the top which is the belly bar, and I have a roller below for the batting. I don't use the roller for the batting because Molly, my poodle will roll in it and make holes. I have no idea what a PUCK is. These have some really different nicknames.
