JerryTodd Posted October 14, 2014 Share #2 Posted October 14, 2014 What size/scale are you looking for? There's a variety of braided line available in lots of colors, even camo, at hardware stores and such - parachute or para cord. I'm not sure how small that gets. I think there's some modern model yacht companies that sell smaller stuff. A quick search of "braided model yacht line" got me: http://www.cornwallmodelboats.co.uk/acatalog/cap-Dacron-Braided-Thread.html You use a few colored threads and do a round sennit to make stuff that's very small. http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-4-or-8-Part-Round-Braid Quote Jerry Todd Click to go to that build log Constellation ~ RC sloop of war c.1856 in 1:36 scale Macedonian ~ RC British frigate c.1812 in 1:36 scale Pride of Baltimore ~ RC Baltimore Clipper c.1981 in 1:20 scale Gazela Primeiro ~ RC Barkentine c.1979 in 1:36 scale Naval Guns 1850s~1870s ~ 3D Modeling & Printing My Web Site My Thingiverse stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
