Thomas, I just measured the pair of gasket in my Elring set. The thin one
is about .006" - .007" and the thick one is .02". The thin one was not torn
apart by merely looking at it though. My computer printer paper of 24 lbs
is about .003" - .004" You can make one out a sheet paper of 28 lbs or simply
out a sheet of 24 lbs.

Well, since I have been considered Not Reasonably Conscious for what I do so
take these numbers at your own risk. I know someone will jump out to cry
bloody murder because I said these.

David
