Not a kit, but I found this on ebay the other day. Thought it would be useful for wiring and cables etc. Being aluminium it isn't springy and therefore is easy to shape - like lead wire but already coloured.

Gern

PS It's 0.7mm diameter so the purists might feel it is too thick - it scales up to about 1" diameter in 1/35 - but for larger scales it should look OK.

I know, i know, i know. But they did build some great machines. At least it's not another FW190 to go with my other nineteen FW190 kits lol
