Doug,
They are indeed still available as well as different width wheels, single or double, etc. I have boxlined (single and double) a number of frames with this quality tool. I think they (Bugler) have a web site.
As you would expect, pulling a line along a tube is fairly easy. I usually do not use a guide for this. Going straight around the tube is another matter.
