I am using 24 guage steel wire coated with Future (for corrosion proofing). The model is pretty small so I should have probably used 30 guage and may even do the rest that way. The aircraft looks like it uses two/three different sizes. Or more likely rods and wire.

The plane just screams SHINEY - so I had to make it that way.
