I'm rebuilding a 40-195 and am in the process of rebuilding the pushbutton controls. Mice have eaten/destroyed some of the wire leading from the coils to the pushbuttons. The coils themselves are OK and test good so I'd just need to do some fancy work to rewire between the coil and the pushbutton. However the wire is like a braid that I can't seem to find when looking at wire online. Anyone have an idea where one might be able to get that wire - or isn't it that important that I use the same type of braided wire? (I could use magnet wire or some other small diameter bus wire I suppose?)
