neat Nick!  
 
I  think  you can still buy  the  tractor feed   paper  new.,
unless  you were running it  a lot  a large box   should  last   fine  for 
test.
 
I believe  most of them  came  with     tractor  feed didn't  they!?
 
What a  cool device   I assume  a space saving   trick  for on board  ship?!

Howdy  men - I'm slowly moving forward with my triple 28RO  "waterfall"
restoration. This thing came with two tractor feed typing units  (and 1
friction feed).

I am in need of learned  counsel from this august group - should I
a) try to swap the tractor feed  typing units to someone who
needs/wants them? Anyone interested?
b) try  to replace the platen mechanism with pressure feed style?
Anyone got any  spare partss?
c) try to find some of that oddball sized tractor feed paper  (surely
an impossible quest)

As always, many thanks for the  interesting and knowledgeable comments
that abound on  greenkeys
cheers,
Nick  K4NYW
