Cosmo, there is a particular wire sold just for this purpose, it's called
"safety wire" (in the US anyway) and is made of soft stainless steel.
Should be available at any racer's supply, aviation supply, even Harbor
Freight. It's available in different sizes, but .032" (20 AWG) should cover
all TR uses.
