Bishop stroke length

[redrichie]

Looking into buying a bishop from someone in a different state. I don't know much about bishops. Is there a way to determine stroke length visually without measuring? Is there a dot indicator or something?

As I understand they only come in 3.5 and 4mm. 3.5 being the standard

I've got 2x 3.5mm strokes and a 4.2mm - the 4.2 has it engraved underneath near Franco's signature.

Amazing machines - use them daily.

I did have a OG bishop that was 2.5...even had 2.5 engraved with franco's signature....

They are great machines...When you think about it we are so lucky to have so many different great working machines available to us....

Elbo i agree. Are all bishops engraved with his signature?
