I need some nib housings...

[rherrell]

I'm looking for the Jowo #5 & #6 housings and the Bock #5 & #6 housings, I need them for test fitting my step drills. If you have any of them I can buy that would be great, if not can you point me to a supplier, the only one's I can find include the nibs and I don't need the nibs.

Thanks

I found a JOWO 6 for a nib I ruined. I'll try to get it out soon.

There is one problem with these diagrams, since the Jowo cracked housing debacle.
It appears that the way Jowo fixed the problem was by, ever so slightly, thickening the housing. I don't think this is reflected in the diagrams.

I don't know anything about the Jowo problems. I was only trying to answer the Bock portion of Rick's request. A message could be sent to Phil Dart asking if the drawings reflect current production and if there were any drawing revisions in the past.

Brian Gray has a nice article explaining the JoWo issue on the Miester Nibs website.
