    Ahhh - I missed the size for these when I posted on the other thread that they are exactly the same as the BPL micro-tensioners.

    These are bigger than the BPL micro-tensioners.

    The BPL micro-tensioners are the mini Line-Loks for line diameters of 1 mm to 2 mm.

    The mini Line-Loks only appear to be available in black or white. No glow in the dark colors.

    Sorry if I mislead anybody on that.

    At least now it is possible to order the mini Line-Loks direct instead of having to go through 2 more distribution layers.

    Added to the list.

    et al,

    The group buy will end next Thursday (Dec 20) so that everyone will have a chance to participate and get some of these if they want them. I will start collecting payments probably next Tuesday or Wensday. I don't want to take any money until we know exactly how many we need to order and what the price will be

    BTW,

    We just hit 200 pieces. There is a lot more interest than I initially thought. I have emailed them back and asked for pricing for 200 and 250 pieces. I will let everyone know when I hear something back.

    The mini Line-Loks are said to work with 0-3 mm line and the larger Line-Loks work with 2-5 mm. I was thinking that you may be able to heat the larger Line-Loks with a heat gun or similar, softening the plastic a little, and then squeeze the jaws/teeth together a little so that they would work with 1 mm line also.

    That's fine. I think many of us thought they were the small ones. I did until I was creating this thread and noticed that they also listed a mini size, only black and white. and then I compared the dimensions between the 2. They even look like the mini size in the pictures.

    So please take note: These GITD Line-Loks are larger than the ones sold on BPL.

    I'm sure there will be some extra floating around after everyone gets their order.

    That's the website. Try typing it in your browser and see if that helps. That site does have some cool stuff.
