massplastic Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 What's the best thing to use for wiring and plumbing. I have a 56 Ford pickup that I'm working on and want to plumb and wire the engine for added detail. Thanks.
CAL Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 What's the best thing to use for wiring and plumbing. I have a 56 Ford pickup that I'm working on and want to plumb and wire the engine for added detail. Thanks. There isn't a best thing, it's whatever works. I have a selection of steel and soft brass hanging wire, craft wire, and Detail Master wire in just about ever size, Evergreen plastic rod and tubes, solid core solder, K&S spring steel, and a selection of small guage electrical wire - I probably have 50 different wires, tubes, and plastic rod to make just about anything I want. However the general rule is: If I replicating a hard line I will use something stiff like spring steel so the line is striaght as possible. Soft lines and hoses something softer that I can easily put a sag in.
Don B Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Check out your local Radio Shack. They have different size and color wire.
