Yeah bottom right....upper left and one in the middle are from a TM Omega.....I think:funny::funny:


No honestly easiest way is try known pen kit tubes on if it fits then check with calipers.....next time use the throw away kit bags and a Sharpie.....you can tear open to get your bushes out and use a new one from the kit your fitting

Fake news bush versus turner.Like changing gears in your car. Its optional but you do not progress unless you do something. Good luck.Another reason to check and count the cost experimenting with different kits.

The info is complex and mind bending so your few bushes should be a snap mate ,good luck with any new system you develop.

Had the same problem myself the other week. I keep all my bushings in a box that has compartments for each bushing set unfortunatly I caught the open box on the side of my bench and Isaac Newton kicked in. Spent the next 2 hours trying to find and organize bushings with the help of digital calipers:vangry:

Exactly the same Bob.
Use a nice Drawer System with the name of each pen on the front of each drawer, managed to catch it while have a tidy up in the workshop, the unit fell forward and I did managed to catch it BUT all the drawers slid out and fell on the floor :sob::sob:

It is now firmly screwed to the wall, empty BUT wont fall over again :rolling:
