    Great review BattleshipBob ,
    Having seen these used / demonstrated some years ago at SMW and being quite impressed I wished I had bought some on the day, and had searched recently to get some. I got some of the V2.1 type recently off John.
    Have only used the V2.1 ones so far but have been impressed with how they work. Is interesting to see your experience with the V4.
    I have several types of needles with modified eyes and none seem to work quite as well as the loopers do...
    Cheers

      Nice review Bob
      I notice John sells 3 different ones. What is the difference between the V3, V4 and V2.1?

          No expert but V3 is for thicker CA and V2 I think is an older version of V4, it has a different round loop at the end. I will buy a V2 from John to try it out

          hope this helps

            I like the slotted one much better than the loop. Easier to transfer the glue - and I don't tend to glue the looper to the part as often...

              I was under the impression that the groove and the gap is different.

                  Bob , rather you than me, but think she only interested in needles of the hypodermic type.
                  Hope Julie's treatment is going ok .

                    And extra large at that!!! Julie's treatment has finished and she has finished with the cancer hospital, they are happy for her to see the consultant again in Feb.
