John,

 

The best way to replace a bridle tape is as follows;

 

1.    Cut one tape at the point where the balance leather shank enters the
hammer butt, this will get you the correct length for your replacements.

 

2.    Set jig as shown to get length of tape, Cut the tapes (you can cut 10
at a time).

 

 

3.    Glue as shown in second photo.

 

 

I have been doing this for the past 42 years. You can use either hide glue
or PVA, I prefer hide glue, it dries faster

I checked the supply catalogs and couldn't find that device located
anywhere.  What page and what is the part number. <GRIN>

This what I use.

 

Would it make better sense to relocate the bridle tape closer to the hammer
butt instead of the catcher as long as you have to use a plain end? I would
experiment first. I tried a set of tapes glued to the catcher, but the
resulting feel and repetition suffered. YMMV.
