Hi Gil,

Problem is there are very few print hammer heads that have any life 
in them.  You need to keep them in talcum powder and out of heat or 
cold.  Keep cleaning the ink off them when on the machine.  I only 
have a few left.  Only one to a customer nowadays.  I will find out 
what it would cost to repro them.

If I remember properly 6 level tape was the same as 5 level. The 
extra punch was in the middle with the feed holes advanced in between 
the rows of punches.  7 and 8 level tape could be 7/8" or 1".  WUT 
saved a bunch of money by always using the 7/8" tape.

I have discovered a cache of 5 level mylar tape.  At some point I 
will be selling it.  It is NOS from the sixties.

Regards,
Don
