1" is pretty hard to find. I've bought some off Ebay but as you say hit and
miss, just like anything.

Other then West NC I know of no other source.

About 5 or more years ago I looked in to building my own slitter, not only
to make 1" but for the WU 2B's

I got as far as getting some rotary knives, VFDs, even was offered the
remains of a press. A full roll of paper can weight more you can imagine.
My plan was to acquire the 'ends' from a couple printing shops near where I
live.

Anyways other things came up and I had to shelve the project. The part I
never solved is how to oil the paper.
