Search label maker. Buy lots of tape. Once you start you never can stop.
Can anyone recommend a printable label for vacuum tube boxes?
I have a sizable new old stock collection (ok--sizable for me), and can't stand my handwriting all over the storage boxes. It's inconsistent, sloppy looking, and not clear. I'd like to buy printable labels and I'm too lazy to experiment, take measurements, etc. Well, maybe not that lazy, but I thought why reinvent the wheel!
Has anyone done this? Thanks much in advance!

Like good audio equipment, invest in good tape. Get the ones with long life adhesive designed for industrial applications. https://www.amazon.com/Brother-TZES621-Labels-Strength-Industrial/dp/B00ZP2X5IW/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&... https://www.avery.com/products/labels/usage/industrial-durable-labels If I am doing more than a couple, I used printable labels. If it is a couple P-Touch. |
I do the same thing.. I use Brothers P-Touch for cable labels too. Pigeon ring your valves too with label tape.. Like "Tube Depot" I mark the the TOP on the valve too, with a permanent marker. Easy to remove and clean the valve with an alcohol wipe in case it changes or you goof.. I clean the pins at the same time.. I use a cotton wad and a little WD40. I plunge the pins several times, they clean right up and get a light lube, that is conductive. Valves are one of my OCD deals, I have to keep an eye on .. LOL Some DANDY deals if you keep your eyes pealed. Regards |
