String Tie Downs??

I use that type of cloth elastic string. The stuff that is used to tie tags onto clothing or shoes in the store. Almost perfectly round without fuzz. Usually comes in black or white.

Thanks for the info Rob. Much appreciated. I'll give it a try.

I buy string from the model ship section. It comes in various scales and looks good and is inexpensive over time due to the large quantities you can buy.

That is a good idea kaleu, never thought of that, I will check it out. Thanks.

nylon upholstery thread. Comes in different colors and sizes. It's a twisted fiber so it looks like rope. Very strong and no fuzzies.

I've often used "button thread." It can be pretty heavy stuff, but the windings look nice...

Use the ellastic stuff in socks. I use it to clean my teeth during school.

a tip from Martha, use beeswax on string. A dab on you finger after you paint the string will keep the fuzz away.
Or, you could paint the string a base color, dab with wax and then dirty it up. The dirt will cling to the wax forever. Holy Smoly Batman!! I thought of something orininal...I think.
Screw Martha, anybody cando her job!!!
