Need Hoses or Cables? |
| Category: | Detailing | ||
| Submitted By: | En'til Zog | ||
| Tip: | A good source is 'solder wick' - a flexible braided wire meant to 'wick' or absorb molten solder to suck it out of electronic connections. It looks like Stainless Steel covered high pressure hose, made teeny. Or naked 'shielded cable' for electronics work, especially the cable for (old) turntables for records. (Remember them? Vinyl that actually somehow managed to hold sound in analog form???) Hit an electronics supply store, or a very well stocked Radio Schack.
There's also the old standby - Steel Guitar Springs - er - Strings. Bass ones especially. Hey, hepcat, hit the music stores. Or a guitarist who might have old ones. (No fair trying to sneak them from a 'working' guitar. That can be fatal.) They come in a variety of sizes/diameters. |
