    I've had this project on-deck for awhile but could never get to it. Perhaps you can.
    Steel ribbon spools are superior to plastic spools for myriad reasons. They're durable, due to their rigidity. They're rarely ensconced in the jams and slippages malleable plastic ribbon spools succumb to. Moreover metal spools enable higher quality type delivery via smoother ribbon distribution, hence ink distribution, delivering more uniform type impressions and ultimately better read-ability and overall page look.
    Buy these ribbon spools, hose them down, then send them out to Fine Line Ribbons in Texas (or your favorite ribbon guy). They'll re-spool them for a dollar apiece and plasticize them individually for freshness! Then stick 'em up on eBay, etsy or wherever for a reasonable price and push 'em out.
    No rust, although a little surface dirt here and there --- see photos.
    Ships at 42 pounds.
    Sell new, high-quality ribbons on a sturdy, reusable *metal* ribbon spool --- profitably and FOR LESS... and turn the batch quickly.
    Thanks for looking!
