new old stock renishaw rgh41 heads & RGS40-S tape

Hi!

New old stock from a project that never really got started.
Tape adhesive seems to be in good shape.

read heads
5 x new RGH41 1Vpp
incremental 2 channels V1 and V2 differential sinusoids in quadrature

gold plated steel tape with linearity ± 3 μm/m, ± 1 μm / 60mm
1 x 4000mm RGS40-S tape with 40um scale period
1 x 2800mm RGS40-S tape with 40um scale period

£500 GBP job lot 

I am trying to think who has a big enough machine to need these.
Can the tapes be cut? As you have two tapes and 5 heads I assume so?
