Does anyone have the dies to cut late Ampico "A" gaskets out of
leather?  Is there a demand for them?

I cut Wurlitzer, Coinola, and Simplex gaskets out of leather with steel
rule dies for myself.  I have a friend bugging me to make the dies to
cut the Ampico "A" gaskets but I don't want to make the dies if no one
else is interested in leather gaskets.

I do not like the cork rubber gaskets as I typically restore pianos in
the humid south for other parts of the country that are dry.  The cork
rubber gaskets have been a source of problems and the leather gaskets
have worked much better.
