Anyone have any reasonably priced sources he can pass along? Thanks.

Mr Parabellum,
eBay looks like being the universal winner for your needs. Link below. UK seller.

Good luck!

I got a spool of Maxima Chameleon 2 lb. line from a place called The Fly Fishing Shop, I think they are in Utah, but easy to look up online to get the particulars. Cost was $8.10, including shipping.

Please explain what "mainly playing Progressive an Electro house" means...

I read in Windsock Jan -Feb issue steel wire from Small Parts . in the the Rolans build it was listed . I ordered from the company very reasonable price it comes in 60" and you can get any size you want . from .006 to .15 I got . 0085 for rigging and .007 for control lines. I could thread bob's buckles in it . The only part that is hard for me is cutting the right size. since I new to wwi models in fact just started after 50 years of not modeling at . I must say the wires look great.
