The swager that Mike pictured runs $6,000+++ but the finished fittings are VERY nice. The down side is that you'd better measure right the first time if you do swaged fitting on both ends. The up side is that the decreased drag from having fewer thimbles out in the breeze should gain you LOTS of extra speed! Off to find a sailboat guy who works on smaller boats... Thanks guys...
