[GreenKeys] More recent use of punch hole tape

[Paul Heller]

And as Wayne very well knows, I have a Jones & Lamson Stored Program Tape editor that was made for entering and punching the CNC instructions to tape. It is a Model 33 with a special computer in the pedestal. All self contained. 

Wayne has a photo of it. It is one of my favorite machines. I even have the manual for it (again thanks to Wayne).

73,
Paul
