[GreenKeys] ASR-33

[Larry Tighe]

I still need to finish lubricating it, and
to install grommets in the ribbon
=============================

I just tie a knot in the ribbon where a grommet would go and it works 
fine....on 28's and 15's...don't know about a plastic machine but would 
expect the same good results.
