I need some ideas for a small diameter, light, collapsible, 24" long, "spreader" to hold Nanoseeum netting wide above my head. I'm trying to get away from the "narrow peak" result of a single tie up.
A typical shock-corded tent pole would work, but I'm holding out for something about 1/8" or less, most likely just sleeved and not connected.
Ideas?

I found everything I needed, and more.
