DocRob Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 I think you both mean the same and it is the same like I used. Cheers Rob 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted April 6, 2020 Administrators Share Posted April 6, 2020 Yes, that's it. I had the same confusion when I first bought line myself. I used .12 of an inch when it should have been .12 mm. I corrected my post. That 2 lb line looks, to me at least, 100% scale. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomber_County Posted April 6, 2020 Author Share Posted April 6, 2020 Ernie it wasn’t the picture but the listing beside it, the 2lb line @ 0.005” = 0.127mm Sorry didn’t explain it well, Amazon UK have 600m reels of it, so I am hunting for small reels........ 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HubertB Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 Well, think of it this way : with 600 meters, you can do A LOT of WnW kits Hubert 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlrwestSiR Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I'm going to have to look around as all I can find near me is 4 lb and up. I suspect that will too thick to use. Amazon shipping to Canada is a bit nuts at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Shipping to Canada is a 'bit' nuts"................................ it's a LOT nuts, we only want to RENT a small space on the truck, NOT BUY the whole truck !
