Try http://plastruct.com for every styrene piece and shape you can imagine. That's where I got mine.
And once again, Thank you guys for the boost...I'll soon try to put how to's on seatbelt harnesses and windsheild wipers too. Stay tuned and see what's up next from my workshop.

See you!

I've seen this write up before, i think it was already in the faq section?, but anyhow my co-axial cable also only has thin strands of wire in it, is yours a special kind? or just plain tv cable?

The only coax I've seen with this stuff in it, the braided piece was about 3/16" in diameter, way too big for a 1:24/1:25 scale model.

What specifically do you use and where do you get it? Does it come in different sizes?
