Sounds like there is a plan to see if more rubber hammer heads can be  
made. If enough people contribute we could share the cost of having  
the mould made, I'd be prepared to contribute if the cost is not too  
outrageous. If there is little marginal extra for making more than one  
I would suggest making a few (I am assuming they are reusable). No  
idea how you then mould rubber of course.

Incidentally I have a friend who is a locksmith and potentially quite  
good at working metal. If the plan with Lynn Steele (is that a person  
or a company?) does not work out, I could ask him if he would be  
prepared to have a go.

The rubber is the print hammer head.  It wraps around the print hammer  
into a slot, sort of like a reversed grommet.
Les is going to send me a sample.  I am hoping to get Lynn Steele to  
make a mold for it if the price is right.

The rubber hammer on my 33 is still largely intact. When I used the  
machine briefly over the summer the hammer developed a depression,  
possibly caused by softening with the summer heat. I have posted some  
pictures here: http://sdrv.ms/1dOUMwT. I am wondering if I should keep  
it while it lasts (keeping an eye on it all the time of course), or  
should I just replace it anyway with the plastic tubing?

How is the rubber attached anyway?

Rob
