Maybe a bicycle wheel spoke for the wire?

Andrew

If its the same gauge wire as the outlane guide rails then the stainless wire that welders use for tig welding is perfect.
Good luck

thanks guys.
one of the suppliers used to sell a 'bend your own' length of gate wire, but i can't find who sold it.

You can also use piano wire - if you have a music shop local !

Andy, remember we made the exact same thing for GODZILLA using thin gauge coathanger wire.

That famous QLD moonshine has taken your memory away !  **)
