Colleagues,

I'm sorry that I got into your forum for a selfish purpose. I myself last straightened the butterfly about 30 years ago - and now I needed pins.
The question is: are there now black pins with a diameter of 0.5-0.7 mm, with a black round head with a diameter of no more than 1 mm (i.e. not very prominent) Before, I remember there were such pins, and I hated them, because the process of driving them into the straightener was painful for the finger (precisely because of the fineness pinhead).
But now life has turned around in such a way that in a certain ship-modeling project, two or three dozen of these pins were needed. Ready to buy or just trade for a bottle of red smile.gifI myself am in Moscow, at the biofactory of Moscow State University smile.gif

Look for old scoop pins #0 or 00... They're exactly what you described. It seems to me that the MSU biofactory department could be lying around somewhere)))

There's plenty of that stuff wink.gif
I will be in Moscow on September 24-25, while there are no plans to visit the MSU Biofac (only the Zoo Museum), but maybe I'll stop there to see my entomologist friends. As an option, I can bury the bag in a conditional place wink.gif
If you do not find up to these numbers, write to the soap.

If you don't find it before these numbers, write to the soap.


Thank you very much! I'll try to make some more jokes here on the spot, if I don't find them, I'll ask you smile.gif
