[Drake] Viking help

[Gary H. Harmon, Jr]

A full service hobby shop has the perfect replacement white rods.  I bought
a pack for my Johnson and they worked perfectly without any modifications
other then trimming to the right length and angle.  Just make sure you get
the right diameter rod.

I went through this about 15 years ago. You will not likely find any
original replacements. What I ended up using was a brand of Q tips that uses
plastic sticks..cut into pieces.
Runner up might be a white sewing needle cut into small pieces.
