Greetings all.
This subject possibly been dealt with in earlier postings. If available
in archives please point the direction.
The ribbon in question, fabric cotton I guess, has been torn in half.
Some method of joining is needed which will transverse the ribbon guides
without jamming. Glueing appears (to me) to be the only way with a
chance of success but would necessarily be able to do its job while
maintaining a flexible minimum thickness of the tape joint. If glueing
is the method of joining used, some points on the preparation of the
ribbon to ensure adhesion will be appreciated.
Cheers.
Maurie
