Hello again George,

Sh-t - and this one's 2mm too small

https://www.mikrocontroller.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=88&language=en

Getting closer - the one at the bottom of this page is 11mm

http://www.fine-tools.com/level.htm#ziellibelle

Finally - 12mm

No mention in the Ts & Cs of minimum orders that I 
could find

Cheers
Douglas
