Same wire supplier different wire.Take a old one a check it out for urself.I just did it along with a BM like capesams said. An I am correct.Not the same.I could live with the hook thing as I am used to changin em out.How bout the swivels.
Listen I like the whole history thing with Stan. I can appreciate what he did.I also appreciate what the new guys are trying to do if what they say is right.In fact,I confronted him at The Rissa show about blatently copyin Habs 3 oz needle.I went there with a head of steam an left a puppy dog. The guy is a good guy.I couldn't do it.I still won't buy one.
Ok they Use sugar pine how about sealing it.
No need for the last part.I ain't making anything new.
I am a realist. My statements come from my own occurances or ones witnessed first hand. Perhaps ur the one blinded by history.It's not a bad thing.I know u new Stan well.This should bother u more than I.Oh ya I still love ya also.

Tony let's get together for some fresh (not that smoked crap) Kielbasa smothered in Marinara sauce next time your up and discuss this further. ( Maybe KarlF can suggest a good wine to go with that?) We can even go to the Gibbs factory if you like and we can discuss this with Dennis and Dan, they are always willing to listen, good or bad, and bring your junk Pencils and they will make good on them, probably let you pick through yourself to find suitable repalcements. ( I am serious on that, they will do that). As you know all you have to do is send the bad ones back and they will replace them no questions asked.
I am sure you admire my loyalty as I admire yours. It's well placed on both points of view.
And one thing more, I want you to know I ripped off your flared nose design for my stubby needles so they would push even more water. It's a good idea and I had to incorporate it in my latest creation based of course on a previously thought up idea.
Does anyone here remember Tim Coleman expounding the virtue of white or all black stubby needles with long feather tails in a book in the late 70's? And before him Danny Pichney and before him the Mad Russian? And before him.......?
