I need a short length of the metal cable/conduit that is used on telephone handsets in public phones. I've managed to find something similar but it is nowhere near as flexible so not quite right. Any ideas where I might get some short of visiting the local phone booth with some big snips? Not much luck on Google, can STW do better?

This?
Yeah, I did see that but it minimum 25m if they'll even deal with me. Also can't tell if its the proper extra flexible stuff used on phones. As the the shower hose its actually about right just too big!

Call 'em. Bound to have an off cut, or ask them for a metre sample. 😉

Just to close this one off. I found this which arrived next day and is perfect. Get a 'free' magnet and reed switch too which might come in handy one day.

Thanks for the suggestions
