Ivory Music Rolls Request for Damage Reports
By Piotr Barcz

[ Ref. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whC43S6Kvoc ]

If anyone has issues with my Ivory Music Rolls where the rolls
either tear up or otherwise become unplayable, please let me know!
I know the edges on the first run in particular were very close to
unplayable but were just barely within margin of error to properly
play.

If you notice the paper degrading or the slight sawteeth in the
edges start to tear then please let me know as I need to figure out
if the paper I've selected actually has enough lifespan to survive
being played regularly. As I don't have the perforator functioning
at the moment if someone has their roll destroy itself I cannot cut
a new copy but hopefully that won't be the case.

Apologies again to anyone that got unplayable cuts. It seems to have
been a minority, thank goodness for me, but I will never forget my
screw-ups that lead to rolls being unplayable for a couple people.

I cannot rectify my mistakes at this time but when the time comes
I will make sure to prioritize recutting rolls that played badly to
make them usable.
