Kylo Ren red wire

[Anakin Starkiller]

Hi everyone,

I need to pick up a large supply of the red wire for Kylo Ren's saber. I know there are some sources for buying short lengths, but does anyone have a source for this stuff in bulk?

Thanks for your help
Dan

It was washing line that they used.

Yep, Khal at KR managed to get hold of some from the actual batch used on at least one of the props. Think he was selling it on his website too.

Wow! Thanks so much for the info. This is what I found. https://www.amazon.co.uk/50M-Quality-Everlasto-Wyercentor-Coloured/dp/B07L12VMQX
Hopefully when it comes it's the right size and color

I heard a similar idea of it being speaker wire, but Khal confirmed it's a red polypropylene core washing line.

Is washing line used to hang clothes to dry?

I never knew there was a high-tech version... Thought people still just used string

He did, and sold some off. I have one of the "actual" wires I bought from him and put it on my saber. If any of you guys need pics of it, for matching the color to the washing line, let me know.
