Thanks Andy, that deepens the mystery as to where the ones I have came from!

I just checked. Teflon Small PTFE tubing sizes include in 1mm ID, 2mm OD. A short length can make enough bushes for a shrubbery . . . Ni!

2, 5, 10, 25, 50

PS.

I suppose it would be just about possible to put a NWSL bush on a 2 mm axle and turn the OD down. I'd be willing to send a few over if they could fit in an envelope < 1/4" thickness limit. A thicker package would incur the $18.00 min postage.

Just found a box that the P87 wheels with the 2mm od x 1mm id top hat bushes came in!

They were from Railflyer Model Prototypes Inc. But did they make them or were they bought in? Can't ask Railflyer now, sadly...
