Toilet Paper is one of my favorite "How it's Made" episodes. Feel free to check it out at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z74OfpUbeac.

My favorite part is at 4:43 with the Circular Saw!

I think those are trimmed off because they're uneven?

They might be trimming the first inch or so, so that there's a neat edge

One can recognise an engineer to how long one can watch, fascinated, "how it's made"! It's a great show.
