How to Load Paper into a Perkins Brailler

[@brailleadventures]

Let me know if you have any questions about how to load and unload paper from a Perkins Brailler!

At 1.40 my machine doesn't stop the paper at the end of the sheet ...but the rest of machine is ok . It would be a problem ? It doesn't seem so important but don't know maybe a piece is broken inside .

Can i use rigid sheet film for braille? As a substitute for paper?

[@brailleadventures]

I haven’t tried it, so I’m not sure. I have brailled milk jugs and the dots hold up great! If you try it, do you mind letting me know how it goes?

The Perkins Brailler was invented in 1951 by David Abraham.

Good afternoon I hope you are fine. Please let me know how much it costs

[@brailleadventures]

A Perkins Brailler costs about $900 new. But I regularly see used Perkins on eBay for around $300.
