I made them. The only reason I thought they were needed was because the Miraphone is unlacquered (not that the older Miraphone lacquer was all that durable in any case). I don't use one on the York Master, and I don't worry about it.

I've heard adhesive mylar as a suggestion in lieu of a leather wrap, though I haven't tried it myself. I think you'll find it at a drafting supply house.
