[GreenKeys] Teletype 40 Printer Type Carrier Belt

[John Whitney]

I'm trying to get a good condition Teletype 40 Printer working.  As with
older Teletype rubber parts, the belts have turned to goo.  I would like to
see if I can't make replacement belts by CNC machining a mold and making
them out of a newer material like silicone, teflon, neoprene.  My printer is
the 132 column version and I'm looking for a new in the box replacement part
132 column Type Carrier belt for the Teletype 40 printer.  I have a new 80
column Type Carrier belt for the smaller printer as an example, and here are
two photos of it...

This 80 column belt looks good, but I need a 132 column one to take exact
measurements of it.  I'd like to get one of these, given up for dead, TTY 40
printers wizzing again.
