As for the brand-name polycord at smallparts... well... it doesn't sound like the 400% increase in price ($4.20 in 10' lengths) is worth it.

And the tips on the wide belting from econobelt are good too.

Thanks to all,

How is the polycord with the grip on the balls? Is it similar to surgical tubing?
