"My HW-101 had the dial string pulleys on both the caps and the shafts, they just happened to fit the O-rings that Heath went to in later years. I used dial cord from the local parts jobber and, IIRC, springs from clicky ink pens to string my 101 when I got tired of the O-rings slipping. "

Braided Dacron fishing line (not the more common monofilament nylon) works well here also.  I have procured springs suitable for this type of application from the hardware store.
