I just ordered some replacement rubber hammer faces from Western Numeric
Control along with some oiled paper tape and a couple of paper rolls. I
don't have an exact total, but I just dropped about a hundred bucks including
shipping.
Fortunately for my pocket book, I have several boxes of dry fan-fold tape for
my high-speed punch. I just checked the box - some black, some grey and one
box of genuine "PDP" papertape from DEC.
Now back to cleaning and lubrication.
