If anyone has a pristine Hand Made Guardala MB1 and Hand Made MB2 and are willing to share the facing measurements, I would be gratefull.
When answering, please put the feeler guage size beside the measurement because some of us don't use the same guages. Fo instance I usually go in increments of 5 thou. 
Thanks
Ross

Also it is helpful to specify the glass gauge increments, E. Brand (each increment is 1/2 mm) or mm's.  A facing length on the E. Brand scale might be 43, which is 21.5 mm's.

Same with tip openings.  The E. Brand tip wands were in hundredths of mm's, so that a tip reading of 135 is 1.35 mm or (1.35 mm / 25.3 mm/in = ) .053" (or "53 thousandths")

Sorry to get picky, Paul, you know I think the most of you, but 25.4 mm to the inch.

Cheers,
Geoff.

You are absolutely correct... it was a typo.  Honest!
