Well... while I don't have one (tho it would
look kool next to my '029)
You have an 029? I've got an 026 that is in need of some cleaning/adjusting.
Have you ever gone through the process? When we fire it up, not all the
right things happen when feeding a card from the hopper.
Also, do you have a set of the leaf-spring force measurement thingies? I
need to aquire a set for the 026 and TTY adjustment, and have no idea where
to buy them.
One source is Neuses Tools in the Chicago area http://www.pkneuses.com/.
They specialize in tools for the telecommunications industry. They are a
small speciallized company and are therefore a bit pricey but by golly
they've got a selection of eight spring tension guage products from 0 - 10
grams up to 2000 grams range.
Another real neat company who has a truly heavenly selection of tools for
the precision craftsman/restorer/modelmaker is Small Parts Inc. at
http://www.smallparts.com/. I've got their catalog and am extremely
impressed by their selection of tools, supplies, books, resources and hard
to find stuff contained within. In looking at it I hyperventilate at some
of the goodies! :-)
