I used one to make a batch of spokes back in the late 80s. It worked but you had to watch that the length didn’t change incrementally as you cut and rolled the spokes. There was a sliding thing that the uncut spoke hooked on but if you weren’t careful, it could slide a tiny but every cut and the last spokes were shorter than the first.
