I use guitar wire, too. On a mini stick, I use it for making the rear hook,
the prop hook & the front (prop) bearing. I cannot imagine needing to
"straighten" the wire for these applications.

My only source for small diameter wire .010 & .012 is guitar strings.
They come coiled in a paper bag - is there a way to reliably straighten
them ?
I've used it on a couple of MiniSticks and have felt that it would be
better if straighter.
