Flick your Bic!
I had one of the mini ones from Going Gear(Sparkie) & it didn't last long,pretty flimsy.
Now their misch rods are great.(GGs)
I was showing off at work this morning & started some strips of waxed paper with a GG misch rod.
The strips were from a waxed tub we use for small parts cleaning,so pretty thick,not actually waxed paper & thicker than a paper cup.
I think of waxed paper as man made fatwood. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
