One idea I read years ago was to use thin mylar sheet. Roll it tightly
into a tube, slip it through the holes, then turn it loose. It'll uncoil

I like it; can you get it in long enough sheets (at an affordable price)
to reach at least from tip to inspection plate and inspection plate to root?
My plan so far has been to try the same technique using thin AL flashing
material from Home Depot a/c supply, but this sounds just as light
without the risk of cutting the wire on the AL.
We used to buy it in rolls for drafting from any blueprint supply
place, from 0.002" to 0.007" thick. This was, however, 30 years ago
before CAD. A quick Google search shows it to still be avaialble.
3M and Mitsbishi Polyester Film both make TONS (no exageration g) of
this stuff without the matte finish, but I don't know who their
custoemrs are.
(PS; Mylar is duPont's trademark for polyester film)
