I also use shrink tube for covering rods.  When I first started using, this
was extremely hard to find, in sufficient quantity and small diameter I use
for welding rods, except at an electrical supply store.  I say sufficient
quantity because I need some length for the arm control rods and you just
couldn't (can't still??) buy a package at a hardware store locally.  I
don't, however, find that it affects the flex in the rods I use; that's
dependent on the diameter and weight of the arm being controlled/moved.

Hi Diane,

Also a good idea.  Do you find that it changes the flex of the metal
drastically?
