[GreenKeys] Model 35 ASR Teletype supplies...

[Pete Lancashire]

next week i am going to visit the place with the slitter. it may long be
gone if someone needed the space or the owners wife took over.

two killers. the first insurance. when I visit where the paper is stored
one has to wear a hard hat had to have passed a OSHA test. No biggie
but its the new world.

the other is winding, they as far as I know have no facility for it, or if
they do I've not seen it. Again the slitter has not been used in at least
10 maybe 15 years. I know there was once there since roll of paper
were on if the thing they did.

the third could be feed stock, sure can afford a new roll, i think they
are something like a ton each maybe more.

i'll update when I know later next week.
