Okay guys, can anyone recommend the best method of suspending items above the stage. I'm advised to use 'invisible twine,' but all the twine in the tackle shop was quite visibile and the bloke behind the counter wouldn't tell me where he hides the invisible stuff, truth be knowh I suppose he can't see it either. cheers Johnny Grim

Haven't seen much in

Haven't seen much in hardware stores locally. Spotlight would be your best bet. If you can, try and find this: http://store.puppeteers.org/index.php?main_page=advanced_search_result&search_in_description=1&keyword=dacron I have the 12 lb, 100 yards, black line. I know it says fishing line, but actually it's exactly the same as upholstery thread. (Can't tell you where to buy it, I purchased it directly from that company when I was in the USA. Quick google suggests actually going to fishing tackle/supply shops would do the trick)
