>Do a search on McMaster-Carr for gooseneck. I found some there but can't link to the page. Alternately, I suppose you could turn the segments and make your own.

MSC has sort of a goose neck available. Actually any of the machine tool catalogs have these. It is a series of flexible joints used to hold things in the metal working industry. They work really well and you can get them in different lengths. They look like a series of beads strung together. I don't know what they are called but will look them up tonight if no one else comes through before I get off work.
Thanks John

>Might be called "Loc-Line"? See http://www.loc-line.com/. I bought some larger stuff for dust collection at the lathe, but they also make really small parts (small enough to be used as the skeleton of poseable dolls) that might be what John is referring to and may do the trick.

>Ron,
For any of these goose necks, you can get a "Beam Clamp" and Home Depot or Lowes, etc in the electrical department. Once you look at, you will figure it out.
