Danemouth Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I will be reusing the Cobalt Point Motors from Danemouth Mk 1 on the Mk2 version. The actuator wires were cut to length after fitting and I suspect some will need to be replaced before re-use. Whilst I can buy replacements as part of a pack here it will work out a little on the expensive side. Can anybody recommend wire of suitable gauge and stiffness and a source of supply please? Many thanks, Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Softvark Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I used piano wire from Eileen's Emporium. I'm pretty certain it was the 0.81mm diameter - it just needs to fit into the cobalt hole for the wire. Currently £1 for a 36" length or £2.50 for 3!
