these machines were designed to work great with paper towel groms-they run so smooth with them-why dick with rubber ones.

Slick, are you telling me that before Dale designed his machine he sat staring at a piece of paper towel?.....................................only kidding my man,but what you said just tickled me.

haha pete! this comes from the main man himshelf-that is all he uses and designed the machines at first for himshelf. So I would think there was never any thought to make them work better for rubber groms which are somewhat new.I can still remember using tape on my coil abars. and peter i bet you did to as your old then me!

Yep I remember ,and I did do that,surgical tape you just built it up until the eyelet went on snug. Sometimes back then when you baught a new machine there was sometimes a wax coating on the nipple. It doesn't surprise me that Dale still uses some of the old tried and tested methods, he is the son of Dave Diamond after all.

I prefer a "soft" gromm when running a RW for colour, and go for a "hard" gromm when lining..The paper towel is perfect as well, as like a soft gromm, it offers some dampening properties...Use what suits your style, it isn't law...LOL...

I have 2 RW machines and I love them, I use paper towel, but Ive heard mention that putting a small fiber washer behind a rubber grommet it will keep from getting chewed up, I haven't tried it myself but thought I'd mention it. I ought to try some kind of needle stabilizer needle runner setup too, cause the corner edges snap rubber bands on me. I love the RW machines and Dale was great to deal with, top marks in my book.

yep spauldings use come with that white tape on- ready to rock when they were new.
