The boat is 99% finished..... only need to ad the cables that run from the bow over the bridge to the aft ,
Tried several ways to do it but still not happy how it looks,it is not just threading a wire through the insulators,
i will figure it out (than i can start weathering )

I've noticed there are new products out there. Mig Ammo has various size rigging line targetting ship building and Modelkasten has some stretch wire.

Store Temporarily Closed for Update

Found a ship building forum that bragged about the metal wire producing a more natural sag to the lines.
At $25 for 5m, i'll wait for your report.

These wires are smooth ,i have some nice twisted wire that is not the problem its all the other thingies that go with the insulators and rope .
thanks for the link i found something else i could use for that
