I have a Pichney A 40 Jr. If that is the one you are interested in than here is what I know as I took it apart. It is 6 inches long. Lip on center. It has a conrad Jr lip on it with turned up sides, not an atom 40 jr. lip. It uses a lower lip slot though than a regular conrad jr. lip. Salty sells lower slot conrad jr lips so that is the one I would use. It has a good size belly wgt. about 3/4" behind the front hook, not in middle of both hooks. It goes all the way to the thru wire like all Pichney belly wgts do. 3/8' dia. I am making a few this year too. Good luck.
