Thank you everyone for your kind words!

@ Neilio There are a few ways to do rigging. Here are some pictures of past models I've built and different methods for rigging.

The first shows the MS Mellum where I've used stretched copper wire. The second shows the MT Elbe and some thin 0.150 carbon fiber rod. The Third shows the Bruno Apitz and and fourth, the Micromodels Excavator, each showing additional applications of the product I've used on the Cotton Blossom, Wonder Wire which is another ultra thin composite rod. I bought a life time supply about 7 years ago. I will dig around and see if I still have the firms contact info. The last picture shows the Micromodels Tram horses, where I used a bit of the wife's hair.

Another method of course, is by using thread soaked in adhesive and tied off with a weight to dry while taut.
