Not stepping on my toes... 1/4inch = 7mm Actually 1/4 = 6.35mm that's why 6×6mm works just fine! Edited August 20 by George Durbin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I own several myself and they come in handy. UR right Mike! The thing is, now they have become desireable and these classic ASE brush kits are getting pricey...

Paul Carmody Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 (edited) George .Scotts brushes measured at 3/8 not 1/4 . I should have said Scott on the quote George.I thought that 3/8 was large is why I ask Scott if it was 1/4.

I found a set of four on EBay that should work with a little fine tuning. 10mm X 10mm X 32mm. Also reached out to Darryl and he may have a few sets to part with for me, All the kits I researched high and low didn’t have the size I needed. I appreciate everyone’s help and advice.

They are nice to have on hand when can buy 100+ lots of variable sizes. Never see them offered anymore.
