ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A machine and method for assembling awnings is disclosed. Slats of the type having a front longitudinal side edge portion curled downwardly and rearwardly along the length of the slat, and having a rear longitudinal side edge portion curled upwardly and forwardly along the length of the slat in a complementing configuration are assembled so the rear curled side edge portion of a front such slat can slidably receive therealong said front side edge portion of an adjoining back such slat in interfitting relation permitting sideways angular movement of the slats in relation to one another. The machine comprises longitudinally spaced and aligned anvil sections for supporting front and back such slats thereon in interfitting side-by-side relation, two punching units each having a downwardly acting punching means overlying respective of the anvil sections at longitudinally spaced locations for forming downwardly sloped locking tabs in the front interfitting side edge portion of the back slat while said slats are seated on the anvil sections and for also punching registering underlying cutouts in the rear interfitting side edge portion of the front slat such that the locking tbs extend into said cutouts to prevent relative endwise movement between said slats while permitting relative sideways angular movement therebetween.
