Thanks Eric... My own little secret is for a replacement dial cord. A lot of folks use fishing line, but I've found that waxed thread works even better. If there is a Tandy leather store nearby, they sell it. You can get a huge roll for $10. It never, ever slips, doesn't stretch and it holds a shape for ease in getting around pulleys. It's used in leatherworking, so any leather repair shop will have it.
