[GreenKeys] Print Hammer Heads for M32, 33, 38 Machines

[Teletypeparts]

Bill and Don,

The rubber hammers used to develop an impression after some use.  I have not seen the tubing do it yet, but I usually send them out and dont run my 32 much.  The divot would be normal as consistent with the rubber hammers getting the depression.  I think the tubing is actually a better wearer than the rubber hammers.  I assume the new ones Don is working on will be made of vinyl, not rubber.  

73's

Hey all....I noticed that the PVC tube I used to replace the rubber  
rint hammer head of my Teletype ASR 33 about this time last year  
eveloped a divot where it makes contact with the print cylinder. Not  
ure if this ever came up before for anyone else.  I use my 33 pretty  
ften (PDP 11/05 and SWTPc 6800 work).
As a matter of practice I will be replacing the print hammer pad each  
ime I replace a ribbon. Perhaps I use my teletypes too much ;-)
