The labelerwould repeatedly print a string of text along the wire from one end to theother. I have no idea now where I saw this labeler or what it wascalled. Does anyone have any insight on this device?Thanks!Matt DralleRV-4 / #1763 / N442RV-- Matt G. Dralle | Matronics | P.O.

Listers:An inexpensive method is illustrated in our "How to" pages:http://www.terminaltown.com/Pages/Page94.html. If you don't have a hightemp heat gun an open flame works well too. I like to set a candle on thebench so I can use both hands to maneuver the wire. You might want topractice on some scrap first, especially if you are using wire insulatedwith material other than Tefzel.Regards,Gaylen Lerohlwww.terminaltown.com----- Original Message -----
