A core for winding a continuous web of material. In one embodiment of the present invention, the core includes a first inner portion and a second outer portion. The inner and outer portions once had the same inner diameters. However, the outer portion is resized to having a second inner diameter so that it may overlap the first inner portion. A workpiece, which will be cut into a plurality of second outer portions, is heated. The heated workpiece is then placed over a plug which has an outer diameter that substantially corresponds to the desired inner diameter for the second outer portions. By placing the heated workpiece over the plug, the workpiece is stretched to have the desired second inner diameter. The workpiece is then cut into a plurality of second outer portions of the desired width. Because the inner diameter of each second portion is now larger, they are permitted to overlap a corresponding first inner portion.
