Hey:

If you could find one of a small enough diameter, then I wonder if guitar string might work? The smallest I’ve found is 0.006 inches. If they make one small enough, then I suspect they would have to be rolled flat as well… perhaps something like this would work…

I’m just playin’ around with the idea again.

Later,
