Rob G Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 I use brown or black invisible sewing thread. It's thin, so looks scale. It's nylon, so it won't rot. It's slightly stretchy, so it's got some give. Most of all it's cheap. Buy one spool today and unless you lose it, it should last you until you can't see it without a large magnifier. There are other options, this is the one I use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Work In Progress Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 As above. Use cyano to secure it. You can lightly brush paint with any colour if you want to, e.g. a sort of steel grey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
