Hi Terri.

Thank you for telling us your technique for rigging. I have seen some of your work and I am most impressed with the way your rigging has turned out. I'm always on the look-out for new ideas so I will definately give this one a go.

Des.

Here's a rookie question: can anyone recommend a good place to purchase monofilament here in the US?

Here's another silly question - where can I find a .2mm drill bit. The smallest that I have been able to find so far is .8mm.

Russ,
Did you find the 0.2 drill bit? If so can you share the info? The smallest I can get here in blighty is 0.3.
Cheers
Bob

P.S. Is the 'The Morning Job' sold out in the canvas edition?

Hi Bob. Here's what i found:
Squadron.com

Looking at the other sets at Squadron, sizes 61 to 80 apparently range from .016 to .039. It doesn't specify whether those specs are metric or US standard, but since the vice specs show metric I'm hoping that the bits are as well.

Still got a few TMJ canvas prints left.
