Years ago I made electronic circuit boards and used a tape for artwork
layout for the little strands that connect the components. This came in all
widths. I found a roll of 0.015 inch (0.38mm) X 17.5 yards in my junkbox.
It's similar to black masking tape and is quite flexible and tough with
crisp edges. This stuff should work well but I don't know the current cost.
I paid $2.65 for this roll. KEPRO Circuit Systems, 630 Axminister Drive,
Fenton, MO 63026-2992, phone 314-343-1630. It is called P.C. Artwork
Tape. This isn't used much anymore in the industry but I'll bet they have a
stock of it left. I can't think of anything else that is this thin.

i don't know how well this would stick to the clay but - there is another
type of tape called "GEO tape" it is used in graphic design to frame out and
image of a presentation board. It can be bought in any art supply store.
comes in several widths. (all fairly thin)
Maybe this could be something worth trying

Both Crepe Tape and Geo tape can be purchased at Office Depot.
