Someone in the hobby business might be able to help me with this.

What is the strongest thin cable available?

A friend of mine inherited an awesome but big ass hand-made airplane model from his uncle. It weights a lot (I'd say easily 60lb+) as it was made of solid wood. The idea of my friend is to hang it so it looks like it's suspended mid-air. What would the thinnest strong cable to achieve such feat? And if so, where to get it in Vancouver?

I thought about piano wire as it can easily withstand hundreds of lbs. But it's not exactly thin and quite visible.
