One way I've tried, and it worked in my particular case, is to cut a small V-groove in the top surface of the Homasote, put in a length or two of small brass tubing [ spot it down with hot glue ], and run the music wire through the tube. The tube gets covered over with scenery after you've checked out the operation of the throw. What you've got, essentially is a small version of the old 'choke cable'method.I have also done something like this in styrofoam scenery, by poking a hole through the foam with a coathanger wire, then putting brass tube through and gluing it with liquid nails.You can solder up multiple lengths of the tube. Good luck & regards / Mike
