Hi Guys,

Found some needles on their one on Yahoo Japan auctions. Just wondering if Bakudan Needles are interchangeable with HRC needles. They would be going in HRC emulsion tubes and using HRC clips.

Just making sure they're the same profile etc.

As a side question. Why hasn't anyone manufactured new B needles? If I recall, every other part of the HRC kits is still available. Why can't keihin make some more? Alternatively can they be machine out of a bit of aluminium. I'm not sure how accurate a CNC machine is, but some sort of machine made them in the first place.
