[bcab] Re: Trying to buy 9MM clear Dymo tape

Hi Kevin,
 
I'm afraid I do this the old-fashioned way - with a one-line pocket
frame!  I get a 12 MM rolle and braille the label, then shave off the
blank tape above and below the writing.  The advantage of this for me is
that I can then write labels for the CD spines in full grade 2 braille.
RNIB did once accidentally send some 9MM dymo tape to me, which I found
particularly difficult to align using this method...so if you're really
stuck, I could off-load a few rolls onto you.  BTW, are you saying that
RNIB no longer stock this product?
 
Best,
Clive

Hi Kevin.  I've never had a problem sourcing 9mm tape from Rymans or W H
Smith and I've certainly bought some within the lastt year.

        Hi 
        
        I wonder if anybody can help.  I'm trying to buy the thick,
clear  9MM Dymo tape for the braille Dymo Gun.  Various companies and
the RNIB used to sell this tape.  I particularly want to buy the
narrower tape as it is excellent for labelling CDs on the spine of the
CD case. 
        
        Does anybody know if the narrower tape is available anywhere.  I
did find some in a local stationers', but it was much thinner than the
tape I used to buy, so I wasn't sure Int would be durable enough for
braille. 
        
        Many thanks for any help. 
        
        Cheers
