| Subject: | turnbuckle cable ends |
I need a number of turnbuckle cable eye ends and have an excess of pin eye ends.
I was told that I could drill the pin eye ends to a larger size and chamfer
the holes to turn them into cable eyes. Has anyone done this?
Since I don't have any cable eye ends to look at how much metal is there between
the cable hole and the outside of the fitting?

Hello Rick,
-
That's what I did with some of my turnbuckles.- The pin and cable eye end
are the same but with different holes sizes.- If you are using turnbuckl
es rated for 1600 pounds, the thimble hole diameter should be .219 and for
800 pounds rated turnbuckles, the thimble hole diameter is .188
When you drill and chamfer the holes, you will loose the corrosion protecti
on it may have.
Saludos

Mac, Just wondering if your computer's date is correct or is my
inbox messed up? It is dating your email as year 1990. Just wondering,
I almost thought I had a time machine! Well I guess a piet is a time
machine, ha ha ha.

| Subject: | wood gear question |
Hi all
I am shaping the wood gear legs at the moment and looking at some pictures some
have what looks like tightly wraped string around them for what looks like about
2 inches.
Is this string? If so what type? Is it of any use or just for looks?
Hope I have explained this right

On NX18235 it is waxed nylon cord. It might prevent the wood from splitting
but it is also cosmetic.
See attached picture.

I was told to use butchers twine which I believe is cotton string. Then
cover it with varnish. It might help with splitting but mine will be more
for looks.
