				<title>Steel wire thickness for load bearing 25mm model arms?</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ I want to try out some quite complicated (for me) <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(47);'>GS</span> conversions. I want to use steel wire for the skeleton but am not sure what thickness I need. The vids I have seen look about 1mm - is that right?<br /> <br /> Can this be cut with normal <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(50);'>GW</span> clippers?<br /> <br /> Cheers<br /> <br /> ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Just get hold of some of the large paper clips and straighten them out. They are a decent size and aren't too flimsy. ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Are you just converting or sculpting figures from scratch? Paperclips are fine for small conversions, but I wouldn't recommend them for a full armature, as you'll end up with kinks in the armature where you don't want them... For full armatures I recommend florists wire, around the 20 to 24 gauge depending on the tensile strength of the wire.<br /> <br /> <br /> Stuart<br /> ]]></description>
