I think there is some confusion on the thickness here. Some people talk in gauge, some people in decimal. Just to clarify, here is a gauge/decimal chart:

18 - .0478
19 - .0418
20 - .0359
21 - .0329
22 - .0299
23 - .0269

What thickness do YOU guys feel the lip should be made of? The 'sample' I have is 21 gauge.

I'm, in the same boat as l.i.fish.in.vt.... I didnt know that NJTackle was in the process of making a die.... NJTackle has been very good to me and If I do buy a couple lips somewhere else, that doesnt mean you are going to loose all of my buisiness. Maybe I'll need hooks, mabe I'll need lead, maybe I'll need gromets....maybe i'll need lips of another style...

I'm still going to be a steady customer.

Hey TinBoy! Don't you have some tin to spin or something? Keep the designing to me - you take care of the packaging!

txs. slip ,,I just got home fa lunch, freggin cold working outside...org. thickness is a must in this case...an the fact that there's only one size an shape for this plug.....who's making lip's for the org. pike's....cap'n bill's..atom's an others ..no one....every thing is an off shoot.....this maybe well for other's , but when your trying to make an org. anything to specks ...odd lips just don't cut it no matter who makes them............I for one don't give a hoot as to where anyone live's it has nothing to do with getting the right parts for what your doing.

tinman ...no one I know of encluding myself is trying to oust you out or give you a bad rep.....I did pm you after I got out of bed from being sick for weeks at x-mass time....again txs for the pkg. you sent me.

BOAT fish do count.

"you wont be paying $2.50, or $2.25, not $2.00, not $1.75, not even $1.50 as you all may be thinking, your price is just 3 easy payments of .39 cents, thats right ill say it again, 3 easy payments of .39 cents"
"thats right Ron, but hold on theres more, if you act now, ill include the ginsu knife set to keep as your gift ,even if you return the lips, so act now, supplies are limited"

Over the Last Several Years HAB'S NEEDLEFISH Have Caught More "Confirmed" 30, 40, 50, and even 60 pound Striped Bass than any other Wooden Needlefish on the Market today. 2 Over 50lbs. and 1 Over 60lbs. in 2005 alone........... "HOOK UP WITH HAB'S" Your Best Bet For BIG BASS.....
