Thanks Rich.

Yes I have Favorites stored for myself.

I was calling myself a B'duh bc I went into the this long winded description of "hoseeker" was without giving it the proper name, not realizing a poster before me gave the site's name, making it easy for all.

Glad to hear your results. Some never come back and give their solution. A result can be a help to the model railroad community.
Some use phosphor bronze wire but brass is probably easier to find.

any LHS or Micro Mart.  They make it in different diameters.  One of the shops here in Co.  Springs carry's it.  Phil

Thank you Phil.

I wonder if I would find it at my LHS; the guy only seems to carry single Atlas NS snap track and engine lube.  He's more into the RC stuff.
