     Bob, the Journal information on the Oslund equipment can be found
     in:

     Technical Forum/Harvey, J./Nov 1991/Page 13.

     Although they have names like "Keymaster" and other, the
     principal powered pieces of the Oslund group are the key surfacer
     that levels, and as necessary, removes key material for thicker
     covers; and the trimmer that rough-shapes the key blanks. Other
     than that, there may be one or more gang-style key clamps, and
     perhaps a glue roller.

     Charles Wilson in Tennessee used to advertise in the Journal
     classifieds about sales and service of Oslund equipment. Whether
     he's still into this I don't know, but you might contact him for
     information. His son Tommy is also knowledgeable.

     Hope this helps.

Recently acquired several pieces of key/keytop replacement equipment believed
to be Oslund ?!? Have not a clue as to whether it is complete or functioning
(it's now at a friend's shop; he's checking it out).
We'd appreciate any info, comments, recommendations concerning this stuff.
Thought there had been an article some time back, maybe years ago, in the
Journal, but I couldn't find any reference in the indices.
