Winter time model building thread.

Thanks Sky, By the sounds of it, its actually a wire correct?

Yes, it is actual wire. 27-guage wire is appropriate for scale 8.5 mm spark plug wire (a tiny bit large, but OK).
You can get 12 spools of 26-guage bead wire (9-feet of wire per spool) currently on sale from Hobby Lobby - sale price is $4 for all 12 spools, each spool is a different color.
