Subject: Re: 'melted' tape roller
A small lathe is even better, but note that the cutting tool
is very different in angle from that used for metal turning!
Freezing the rubber in liquid nitrogen helps (it makes it a
lot firmer), if you happen to have the liquid nitrogen....
I didn't have any the last time I looked :) Next time I have room on the
repair desk I'll just whip the old roller up to the appliance repair place
I'd forgotten about and see if they've got anything similar.....
Pity I couldn't just glue on a rubber band of similar width, but I'd guess
they're too soft?
Cheers
