Scott, List,
Had a situation where this fix needs done on a Baldwin Acrosonic,  
early '70s' vintage.
Question:
I am curious as to what size diameter shrink tubing you choose to use,  
1/8" or 1/32"?
I am currently experimenting with the concept of using shrink tubing  
activity for this procedure.
