Re: Dedicated MH Roller Replacement - Finished.

I can make a run of rollers today! I have enough stock for 4 more. Are the shaft
dimensions in your drawing the same as an NOS roller as well? If the are I can
get on making those as well. Please keep in mind gang, that I do not have
dedicated MH to look as so Im relying on the group's input
