Ah, come on, now we have to know ! ;-)
Its actually an effect that you might want to take advantage of in some cases. the light dims as it travels... so if you're looking to avoid the Christmas tree effect it might be something for you to try. it may go more than 1 foot but there is definitely a limit that probably depends ont he line you're using and the intensity of the light source.

If you knew it already, just ignore please.

Please check the purchase tab.
I always use this F/O.
Here in Japan, some retailers are selling this with a small amout like 100m/1500Yen (about 12-14 dollar)
I hope if you can fine the appropriate retailer in USA.
Fishing line is an idea and I tried it once.
It's OK for the short distance like 4inches or 6 inches.
Any paint along the line will kill the light.
