Out local ALDI supermarket ( which won't mean anything to Americans) has a special on "PE dyneema braid' fishing line next week, which got me wondering if it might be something similar to the braided material in the Aquila Red strings. It will be available in 8lb, 12lb, 17lb, 20lb, 30lb and 50lb weights and in my innocence wondering if is worthwhile buying some for uke sets. Dave Hurd's site suggests tha uke strings run between 6-10 lb tension per string so I was thinking of three different weights of fishing line for a uke? The pics in the junk mail catalogue suggest two different kinds (or at least colours) so I figure that the three lower weight strings will be different from the heaver strings. Worth trying out or a waste of time?
