No stock, or no cards? I would think that one of the paper

The machine that is used where I'm referring to cuts from a roll about 2
cards wide. The system also has to be able to merge up to four sheets
together per form as the real product is for the full size credit card
forms that one uses with either NCR paper, or with carbon. They can

CHM has one, and a collection of printing cylinders

Did all punch card manufacturers use the same stock though? I vaguely
recall ICL cards feeling somewhat smoother?
you can still buy rolls from Western NC

There's a British supplier that recently had another run made, although
it's on a roll.

There are no suppliers, and the NOS stuff is all gone.
No one is making new 80 column punched card stock either.

There has to be a better solution than either the vaccum or all-plex cases for
paper tape. Neither one is very good for
anything other than what the slots were set up for (like 1") Short ones get

I don't know if anyone here has the interest or capability to do it, but
creating a replica of the blue tape trays with the clear overlay that
one could sell for a few bucks with some random fanfold copies of DEC or
other diagnostics would be nice.
