Does anyone know where I can get longer lengths of the flat, spring steel used in "slap bracelettes"? I need 2 ft and 3 ft lengths.

If you cut up an old metal tape rule into pieces, this actually works well !

Use the fatter tape rule that should be about 1 inch wide.

MagicMan1957,

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll look into the fatter tapes. I think they will work well for a roll-up neck tie. The other thing I'm interested in is a more real-looking sword thru neck. The standard one looks too flimsy. To me it looks like the blade of a tape measurer, but it still goes over well. I think the thicker metal in the slap braceletts would be great for sword thru neck.
