My rubber stripper blades are fairly close to Mark's dimensions. Could someone accurately measure the roller diameter and the distance across the two rollers so I can figure the center distance and clearance between rollers. Also measure the step diameter that the blades sit on and the height. I don't know whether a different blad thickness would pose a problem, because I don't know how the blades are sprung together. I would have to supply a little spacer ring to make up for the difference between my ID and the roller step OD.

I have been looking for the piece of metal in the attached picture for several weeks but yesterday I moved a piece of paper and there it was. I took some measurements with my Vernier calipers before it escaped again.
