Go to your local lumber yard and buy a plumb bob! They come in different
sizes and materials including lead and brass.

Here's a thought. I haven't tried this but it seems like
it would work. How about a window sash counter weight.
They're the right weight and shape and they are designed
to be suspended on a line. If you go to a vendor that
installs windows they might have a pile of them that they
have collected when they replace old windows with new and
let you have one.

If not try:
