 A0559E45-715B-4955-BBA1-EDEBE1BD9A6E by Bill Le, on Flickr One of our generous members sent these braids as a race prize. These are the best braids I’ve ever used. Much better than solder flux or other braids purchased on line. Would you please share with us where we can purchase these? Thanks! |

Bill that particular braid did not come from me, but I use a very similar braid. I will find that info. when I get home today and post it. What I use is actually for 1/32 scale cars. |

For those that have been scratch building and racing 1/32 for a little while. This is the bees knees for most racers. Thin and flexible. Easy to solder. Available at most slot car suppliers such as Professor Motor ($5.99 for 39" inches). Part number SP-19 by Slot.It. It's called 1mm competition braid.  Except for the mistake on the left side due to too much solder. This was fairly easy for a newbie because of the thin braid.  Ken |

I have found that the bigger braid can sometimes be a little stiff. I will work to flatten it with a pair of flat jaw pliers that I have. It helps it to become more pliable. FYI.....

I agree certain braid is to stiff for our use.
