B&E Electronics has stores in Western Canada. Not sure about the east? They have a website you could order from though.

I use 4mm for single servo leads and 6mm for double leads. The stuff I found (from overseas) is flexible. I cut it to length and then run a lighter under the cut ends to prevent unraveling as I work it over the connectors.-Kevin

Possible alternative? Use the coiled wrist strap material from cheap keychains. Super easy and does a pretty good job of bundling the wires.

How about this:

https://www.digikey.com/product-det...1319-ND/2524519

Other sizes are available also. Digikey is very easy to deal with - great service."The helicopter is much easier to design than the aeroplane, but is worthless when done. W. Wright"

You might check out this place. This is where I usually have shopped in the past

I generally cut it a bit short and apply shrink tubing at each end to keep it looking neat.Ban the Ban.

Thay got a place up here in Canda and I order some from them, I order the 1/8 polyester and it is not as flexible as I thought and a bit too small, I can install it, but a hell job! I am going to reorder some 1/4 inch, just wonder if the nylon is more flexible?P.S. sorry for the spelling or the grammar I am dyslexic!
