What size small wheels?

I've recently acquired 2 small wheel arms for my old Bader B2, and could use some help deciding what wheels I should put on them. I'm thinking 1" for sure for one of them, and maybe something slightly larger for the other. What sizes would you get if you could get any 2? Which do you use the most?
 
I use a 1" mostly, and have a 1/2" for when I need to get into a really small area. May pick up a 1 1/2" or 2" down the road, too.
 
The only "small wheel" that I use is a 3/4" At one time I had everything from 1/2-1 1/2".....I solved my needs by building my flat platens with 1 1/2" wheel at the top, a 3" at the bottom, and using the 3/4" small wheel attachment. I've sold off all the others due to lack of use.
 
I have a 3/4" & 1 1/2" for the arm, Then a 2" on top and a 5" on the bottom of the Platen.

I would suggest the 3/4" for Finger grooves and then the 1 1/2" is what I use to flair the sides in the Index & Second finger grooves. Start small! You can always make it bigger!:biggrin:
