I sure hope that Lee Kirk is still with us. I have one of his mandrel bearing
tools and it works great. I have also made a small 'fly cutter' with centering

Vacuum tube General Radio Strobotach works very well. And it is old

Hello All
If you wold like to see my work replicating Blue Amberol labels, click the link
below. Currently I print them and cut them out; I will be purchasing a die so
that they can be cut perfectly.
