Man, just get some fiber in aliexpress or ebay. For the price tamiya sells you some centimeters you can buy a lot of meters and is exactly the same...

I think it was 1,5mm.
The led, just a transparent looking one, orange color when working, 3mm.
That is what I use and cant be happier

Heatshrink tube worked great for me. All my turret MGs are that way.

OK Rad, I'm going to use your technique for the track rollers on the Sherman as well, because I noticed a flat spot on the plastic? especially the little ones (thermo sheath) :thumbup:
