Rubber rollers and wheels can be rebuilt, if you know the dimensions of the
pinch roller. You can contact Gary Stork at
www.thevoiceofmusic.com They do
customer idler tire rebuilds and have expressed interest in also being able
to do Pinch rollers.

I just bought a big selection of difference sizes
of Norprene tubing
from US Plastics to see how they work on various QIC drives. The
first
ones I'm trying are the HP 9145 and TU58.
If/when we get our wiki up, the outcome of your work would be a great
thing to
record there. (If you're too busy, I would be more than happy to scribe for
you!)
I, for instance, have a TU58 I'd like to get running some day, but given
that
I have about 173 higher-priority things on the list in front of it, I'm
sure
that by the time I get to it, I'll have some dim memory that it was talked
about here, but short of good luck with Google, or a voluminous search
through the archives, I won't be able to find what I need - and I'll have
to
ask... :-( Had we all that kind of stuff in a wiki, on the other hand...
:-)
Yes, not everyone will be diligent enough to check the wiki before they
ask,
but hey, if they don't, you all can enjoy yourself flaming them for not
being
willing to exert themselves to learn how to fish, before asking to just be
given some.. :-)
