I have been reviewing Mr T's and Andy's build diaries and I see that they replaced the supplied wire with 1 mm strips. I have been trying to find where to purchase this in the UK. Can anyone help me? Thanks again for all your support.

 Hi Db What your after is and what we both used was 'Evergreen Scale Models' StripStyrene .020x.040 inch [0.5 x 1.0 mm]size its available at Hobbystore branches or from online model shops you will need about 40 strips or 4 packs to do the Yam with some left over. Hope this helps regards Andy  Current builds:-C57,Zero, Lamborghini Countach, Caldercraft HMS Agamemnon,Robi,R2-D2, MFH Cobra .

Andy, Thanks for the info. Just a quick question, I assume you are talking about it being a rectangle, do you have a part number by any chance. All I can find are Styrene Rods, circular. All help appreciated. Thanks again, Dan
