Oh Bother (Again) - MKIV Avon Ring Spacing.

Post by MaggotDrowner »

Hello all,


I've just noticed that the diagram of rod rings I have done before stripping my Avon down only has on it the ID of the rings I plannned to buy and not the distances between them. Yes, I'm an idiot. :rant: :Brickwall:


I can look at "shadows" on the cane for some but there are no pronounced "shadows" for a couple of rings on the lower half of the tip section.


Would anybody be able to let me know the spacing of the rings on a B.James mkiv avon?


My thanks in advance!

I have since found it on this very site. Thanks to Ljm183 for his awesome thread on the subject of rod ring spacing!
