noticed  this in the message archive 
 
if  this photo  of gumming  desk still available?!
 
this  also brings up a  point  about the guides...
for a  unit  you want to use  is it easy to change the  guide
size out to suit the paper tape size?
 
thanks ed#
 
 
Hi Pete,
Remember that the 2-B uses the 5/16" wide paper tape rather  than the  
3/8" wide paper tape that the M14 uses.
As far as I know  that is the only difference between the two.  Western  
Union  however had a special cabinet for their operators to use called  
the  "Gumming Desk" for making up telegrams.  I can send you images of   
mine if you like.  You could probably fabricate one and add it to  a  
standard cover.

Good  luck,
Don
