speaking of which, do those "index hole sensor" things you can get for
1541's actually work at all?

There IS enough flexibility and slack in the jacket to be able to
CAREFULLY punch the other jacket holes (one on each side) without
disassembly, using a very ordinary handheld hole punch. My first retail
product "Berkeley Microcomputer Flip-Jig" was a plexiglass pocket jig for
marking the positions of where to punch. The "deluxe" version, and the
8" versions, also had a jig for installing center hole re-inforcers.
Fred,
yes, the index hole is the only real problem. Tell a collector to punch his disks and
then start running... :-)
Good luck.
