Well I've just ordered a new tape frame with tapes and I was thinking of getting some new tapes for the old frame, but that really sounds way too exhausting and I am sure my wife would object. I don't think the cats would be too impressed either.

Jeff Baby,
 
1) Take the red reel that says 1 - 12.
 
2) Enlist a friend
 
3) Obtain scissors, 1/4" spicing tape and screwdriver.  
 
4) Demag metal objects 
 
5) Sex with a whore
 
6) Undo first reel and look for punched hole.  Cut across it.
 
7) Splice new tape to the end of the old tape i.e. the tail of the low 
G on the front tape retaining bar of the frame.
 
8) Sex with friend
 
9) Loosen first two retaining screws of front retaining bar.
 
10) Allow spliced joint to pass under screws.
 
11) Ask shagged out friend to hold the tail of the tape to be 
replaced...AND NOT LET GO..and then undo the two retaining screws on back 
retaining bar.
 
12)  As friend pulls old tape out, you allow new tape in until the 
'start' mark line is just before the head gap of the tape head and the loop 
length is the same as the other remaining tapes.  Secure first screw on 
front retaining bar.
 
13) Ask friend, who has now recovered and wants more of you, to tighten the 
first screw of the back retaining bar.  The new tape is now secure.
 
14) Cut tape at next punched hole.
 
15) Repeat 34 times stopping for casual sex when the mood takes you.  
I forgot to include the courtesy tissues.  Sorry.
 
Best,
 
M
