Thanks to everyone who rated this thread. HooYaa I got some stars baby. I got the stars.

Phoenix77,

No worries about the samples I received from you. The 8lb test has a close enough diameter to 10 lb line. I'll see how it works out.
Thanks for sending that.

JLH,

Nice work. Maybe you could delete some of your earlier posts with the same data to keep the thread clean.

I'm glad you found that article, it greatly adds to this discussion. Makes me feel more comfortable that my findings are somewhere in the ballpark. I'll be thinking over how to do an abrasion test at home.
