WARNING>>> go slow and experiment on odd bits first...don't wanna ruin the final cut so to speak...as for wires for the inside...heat up a bit of sprue and start stretching...also makes for wonderful antennea cables and other thin stringy items...and remember to watch you don't burn up what yer workin on...a little heat goes a long way and the plastic will stay warm for a few seconds...  |
Are you sure about the wire I really think there is nothing better than the real thing. Just some electical wire and take the plastic of the end and spread out the actual wire itself. Trust me its safe as long as you dont touch the metal when its in an electical socket or such. (trust me ive used them before at a school camp used a radio antena wire as a makeshift tv cable)
