Tips For Corrugating Ribbons of 1.8 microns to 2.5 microns

  • Buy some tracing paper. Tracing paper is great because you can see the ribbon through the paper. You might need to double up the tracing paper. Also, tracing paper has low friction so be careful when moving it around. The ribbon can slide out. 
  • Cut small strips of the tracing paper and fold it in half. 
  • Unfold the paper and place the ribbon inside the paper at the fold and make sure it is laying straight. 
  • Fold the paper again so the paper is on both sides of the ribbon. One edge (length not width) of the Ribbon should be at the fold. 
  • Place one end of the paper into the tube wringer. 
  • Try to make sure that the fold in the paper is perpendicular (tangent) to the gears. You want the ribbon to be as symmetrical as possible. If the ribbon is at an angle when you place it in the tube wringer you will get corrugations that are at an angle. 
  • Turn the handle. Done!
