About product

Hobby Design Wire, purple wire 0.38 mm

A thin flexible wire 0.38 millimeters in diameter, supplied in a length of one meter. The purple version is part of a color range from which the modeler puts together the wiring according to which circuits are to be told apart on the model. The material is soft enough to be bent with fingers and tweezers, and springy enough to hold its shape without further support.

Where a thin colored wire is used

Most often as the plumbing in the engine bay of car and motorcycle models: ignition leads, looms under the hood, lines to the instruments. The color is not only cosmetic here, because when every circuit gets its own shade the engine looks at once like a real machine and not like a block of plastic. It also finds use on dioramas, science fiction builds and mock-ups, where it stands for cables to equipment, control lines or optics.

How to attach the wire

Trim the end with a new cutter blade so that it is not squashed into an oval. Drill a hole in the part slightly wider than the wire and glue the end into it with a drop of gel cyanoacrylate applied on the tip of a toothpick. Run the line in a curve with a slight sag; a taut straight line gives the artificiality away at first glance. If you do not want to glue it permanently, a small photo-etched clip or a strip of foil helps.

Who the wire suits

  • builders of car and motorcycle models
  • modelers finishing off engine bays
  • makers of science fiction and fantasy conversions
  • everybody who marks circuits with different colors

FAQ

For wiring in the engine bays of car and motorcycle models, and for cable runs on dioramas and technical conversions.

You do not. The shade is part of the wire, so it can be used straight away and there is no risk of the finish flaking off when it is bent.

Drill a hole slightly wider than the wire and glue the end in with a drop of gel cyanoacrylate applied with the tip of a toothpick.

Bending it is no problem, but repeatedly straightening and bending the same place tires it and it may break, so plan the run in advance.
