looks like the pomona probes have 1.02mm tips, which could probably socket 1.0mm electrodes. I'm going to see if any of my local joints have any in stock I can try fitting in them, but I think you might have properly solved my problem. while the probe masters are sturdier, looks like they accept 1.36mm tips, which I doubt are going to be easy to find a tungsten mate for. https://sunstonewelders.com/orion-micro-tig-welding-electrodes I've gone the sewing needle route before, and find that the tips break off very fast if used for scraping, to say nothing of how frequently they draw blood. |

Maybe invest in a soft wheel to sharpen them if you don't already own one. *** Forgot, attached is a sheet metal scribe for Fungus. Note the predrilled hole to attach your test lead wire to. Also when one tip starts to dull, you just rotate to the next. Many benefits. |

Sounds like what you need is a scratch awl, or just use a permanent marker, that's what I do. |
