Thank you! Matti, I´ve tried various mediums before, but this Modelkasten wire seems to me a workable solution for people of lesser rigging skills like me. It´s much more forgiving than stretched sprue, even more forgiving than UNI Caenis.

Frank - does the Modelkasten wire allow you to have the relaxed rigging lines? I've struggled to achieve that using elastic threads.

Thanks again! Yes, the rigging wire is ideal for somewhat slack lines. I do like the effect on the forestays.
