smalljaw Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 Hey all, I was wondering if anyone has a source for the "Y" style weedguards, I know they are no longer made but I was wondering if anyone knows of a place that may have some leftover or old inventory or perhaps someone has a few and are willing to trade something for them? I appreciate any help I can get, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weighinalimit Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 I have some left over in 2 sizes, the small ones are clear and I have large ones in black. Post back or email me if these would work. weighinalimit@sbcglobal.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smalljaw Posted December 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 Weighinalimit, thanks for the offer but I need to know the diameter of the base to see if I could use them, either 5/64 or 1/8 will do, I know the bigger ones are YG-1 but I'm unsure of what the smaller ones are.

EironBreaker Posted December 18, 2009 Report Share Posted December 18, 2009 I've got some clear, black and brown stashed in a box if I remember right. I think the brown are the smaller size and the rest are 1/8". How many are you looking for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking for about a dozen of each but right now I'll take what I can get, it figures that I need them, all the time I had hem no one wanted them and now that they are gone people want them, but I guess they stopped making them because there wasn't a demand, I only used about 5 or 6 a year.

Sorry, forgot to check back with this thread. Send me an email at eisenbacher@sbcglobal.net with your address. I've got more than that. I'll send you a dozen of each. If they work for you, we'll work something out later. Merry Christmas everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatman Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 You can find them at Lurecraft http://www.lurecraft.com/catalog.cfm/Poly-Sil-Paint/Do-It-Molds/Earrings-For-The-Ladies---NEW!!!/Do-It-Molds/Molds/do~it-molds/lead-mold-accessories?vw=all According to the web site the owners supplier had a die made for them and had them made. You can get them in quantities of 100 or 1000. For $44 a thousand I'd get them and not worry about it again. Good Luck!!!!!!!!!
