Roll Perforators
By Michael Waters

I have been reading with keen interest all the information coming in
regarding perforators as I am working on producing one of my own, (as
those of you who have visited my home page would know).

   The idea of having a single cutting head is not new to me, as this
has been the debate in  my mind for some time now. Trying to decide
which is the best way to go (ie. 100 punches or just 1 ) with not
knowing how long it would take to cut one roll. But after Robert Hopps
description I think it's the way to go. I honestly didn't think anyone
had actually managed to do it already!!!...let alone two of them!!!

   My aim is to be able to re-cut those rare re-producing rolls, to
have a perforator that is easily transported (to another collectors
home) and do a "one of" re-cut for my own collection. Being able to cut
rolls of my own via midi is also an idea I'd like to incorparate into
it as well. I'm looking forward in hearing more from Robert in regard
to this.

   To date all I have done is managed to get all the info together that
I need to start the project, this line of discussion has changed a few
of my ideas and I am looking forward to more on the subject.

Regards
