Hi:
This post really isn't intended to instigate any useful conversation. It is simply to ensure that the information gets into the archive.... Recently I was repairing an older Bridgeport brand DRO. The rubber gaskets were rippled and torn. Fortunately I also had an Anilam scale and the rubber cross section was identical. After a fair amount of work I found a company that would sell me the material by the linear foot for a very reasonable price (I seem to recall something like $15 for enough to do a whole setup). Their contact information is:
Unlimited Services, Inc.
Optical Comparator Service, Sales and Parts
(586) 727-8890
Hopefully this information will help someone out there in the future when they are searching the archive....
