One of the guys at our model club showed me a product he just recieved.
He intends to use it a ship rigging and at first glance, looks promising.
It's called "E Z Line" and is is produced and sold by a company called Berkshire Junction. Made of elastic polymer, it has a stretch of 700%. Comes in the colours, white, charcoal, green, rust and rope so you don't have to paint it and 2 sizes, 0.08mm & 0.15mm in 100 ft spools. I'm definately going to try it.
Their web site is http://berkshirejunction.com/

Interesting product for rigging
I was depressed last night, so I rang lifeline. Got a call centre in
Afghanistan and told them I was suicidal.
They got all excited and asked if I could drive a truck.

Kym,
Let us know how it works out. I'd be interested in seeing how the current product comes out. I bought some of this about 3 years ago when it was only available in black. I didn't end up using it as the strands were not uniform in size and looked a little funky when used as rigging; but if they've got new colored items, then they've obviously been improving and changing the line.
