It's possible, but some of this stuff lasts a very long time, and even if the machine has become obsolete the wire should be available. And I can't find that either.

I've heard that mainly when discussing 1970s O-pee-chee cards that they used a wire to cut edges. Have you looked into the OPC factories?
