Mboxer Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 (edited) I recieved this cross and I thought the paint looked a bit odd so I checked some other things. According to Williamsons book it should weigh 20g, (Maker 100) this one weighs 15g. to test my scale I weighed an EK-1 maker #1 and it was exactly 20g. The measurements- it was correct across the piece, but the ends were like 25mm rather then 27. So whacha think?
