I experienced substantial vibration on my brake lines where they enter the fuselage and pass over a piece of the frame and needed to keep this from happening again. The lines needed to be attached to the frame but the under side of the fabric would wear through against anything wrapped around the frame like a zip tie. I decided to use waxed lacing cord, but needed to have a a cushion on the top of the stringer that would stay put.
      This was accomplished by cutting a piece of hose in half and drilling two holes for the lacing cord to pass through and hold it exactly in place while providing cushion and some give. The brake lines exit the bottom of the fuselage through a seaplane grommet and right into the Grove gear.
