Piano Roll Repair Table
By Pat DeWitt

In response to Kjell Landaeus's request for a roll repair table 
[121115 MMDigest], I plan to make my own by using parts from an 
old salvaged upright player spool box, by separating the box into
two parts and putting a long board in between that is suitable for
cutting, taping, etc.  That way I can hold the roll and spool it back 
and forth with a long section of the roll spread out on the board 
for repair.

Of course I have planned to do this project for about five years and
have yet to do it, so buying a completed repair table may be the way 
to go!  At least I have lots of rolls with little sticky notes
identifying where on the roll the repair is needed.
