    Ahah! Needles!

    I will try that. Thanks everyone for the ideas.

    Weird that this was the first post on this thread. This is what I did except mine was 0.35 flux. just what I had - plus its easier to break off.

    Not as frivolous as it sounds...they would make great prussic loops. Just about the only application for mason twine that won't drive you batspit crazy with tangles.
