Hi does anyone know what size tip eye to use as a replacement on a AFAW 6 & Bait please?

Thank you very much Ian with my eye sight and an old tape measure i was getting no where, Really appreciated.Probably 12mm x 3.6.
Ian.
I bought a set of digital calipers (Lidl I think) for about £13.00. Very handy for all sorts of things like measuring rod diameters & ring eyes, plus a load of other things. Takes the guesswork out of measuring things for those of us with ageing eyesight! There are some for sale on eBay.Thank you very much Ian with my eye sight and an old tape measure i was getting no where, Really appreciated.
I have some similar but from ALDI. Useful to have for all sorts of things - but i’ve found that I have to remove the battery when I finish using it because it will be completely dead the next time I need it.I bought a set of digital calipers (Lidl I think) for about £13.00.

That's not good. Not had a problem with mine, though we do usually have a supply of assorted Button cells for car alarm fobs & similar.I have some similar but from ALDI.

The current ones might be better - i’ve had mine about ten years. A lot of the time I use a manual vernier calliper or a micrometer, but my old micrometers are accurate, but ‘imperial’ so I have to run conversions. I don’t use them enough to buy metric ones.That's not good. Not had a problem with mine, though we do usually have a supply of assorted Button cells for car alarm fobs & similar.
