Where to find supplies
I am going to be building some biplanes, I have rigging questions. I have found you tube videos and articles on rigging. I have EZ line. My question is where can I find some of the other supplies? Things like micro tubing and ring anchors. If anyone has any favorite articles or videos I would appreciate input.
Thank you.
Jim

Jim, the ones mentioned by George are great stuff. Also if you want some amazing rigging, Uschi van der Rosten has some elastic line. https://www.uschivdr.com/ will lead you to where to buy I think. I have a few of gaspatch’s details and they are indeed great stuff.

It’s a good question, Jim, I have a yearning to build a biplane of some sort, but am disappointed to see that the kit makers don’t seem to supply any rigging material. Even WNW, generally regarded as the best kits of this type, don’t supply any. I’m hoping that Tom Cleaver’s build of the Armor Model’s Fairey Flycatcher will help.
