I've been looking on RUclips forever for this information. You're amazing.
Thanks Khanh, glad we helped!
Me too. Don’t know how many search terms I tried to use.
Awesome! I'm wanting to hang outside canvas on posts for shade and now know how to do it without sloppy slack! Thank you.
Great! Glad it was helpful! Here's a sunshade project we did awhile back that might help you out further! ruclips.net/video/h-TkaOItz1Q/видео.html
Your videos are ALWAYS top notch Tyler. Thank you.
Thanks! That's what we aim for.
Great videos and love the clear listing of all materials and steps! THANK YOU Tyler!
Thanks, Pat! Appreciate the kind comment!
This one brought back memories of hanging clothesline with dad. And having naked wire jab into my finger.
Little red dot. Shake it off.
Excellent! Thanks
Great video thanks!
Thank you!
Thank you
Just some extra words of advice for people using this style of cable clamps. Two clamps is more than enough to hold even 10:1 safety ratio as long as the cable is strong enough. A lot of the time, there are three wire saddles added to help with hand tensioning the cable. I Am an Ironworker, JIW, local 86. This is the means for perimeter safety for most of our working floors.
Never saddle a dead horse. The way you have the wire saddles are perfect here.
We have cable tighteners, aka pork chops, Just two cable grabbers & a hand cranked wire pulley to get the final strength. Eliminating the need for a turnbuckle
I've done many other things with these steel cables too. From prep/safety to finished reveal... SO . Much. Tapping. Hate lazy painters.
This is also how we plumb up our columns too.
One piece of advice. if you're gonna end up splicing two cables to make a length. Then you will need at least 3 wire saddles, with at least one pair going in the opposite direction, aka saddling a no longer dead horse
Also, when tightening the nuts on your saddles, don't go hog wild on one side, just back n forth, switching sides evenly, and you'll never damage the cable to a point that reduces its structural integrity
Thanks! I know this video is a year old but do you have any suggestions for a method to connect a similar system to a galvanized steel pipe frame greenhouse?
how do you attach the other end of a 100' cable, by hand?
Good overview. If I have slack after it's all put together can I take up some cable by repositioning the thimble if the turnbuckle is not enough? Or do the saddles permanently change the cable once they are tightened and the cable has been tensioned? Thanks!
When torqued properly the saddle wire clips will permanently deform the cable. You will want to make sure you get a long enough turnbuckle and pull out as much slack as you can before going to install the clips. If you have any more questions let me know
If your cable becomes deformed from compression, you're using weak wire and it's not fit for the job. A damaged cable is a frayed cable, snapped off. For almost all instances I foresee any homeowner using this type of system, the actual level that the cable might have lowered is so negligible that the average person need not worry. I Am an Ironworker, we use these cables all over the place, but especially for safety lines around every floor. As long as you go back and forth on each side of the nut, and evenly tighten it onto the cable, you shouldn't even have to worry about damaging the cable. or, like I previously stated. You're using weak cable
Thanks for your replies. One year later the cables are still holding just fine. They are not under too much stress, just lifting approximately 120 pounds (canoe and rack) via a boat winch. As a way to store my canoe and easily take it on and off my car's roof rack this is working out great!
Could you use this to hang fabric? For example to divide a 20' room - or would it sag in the center? THANK YOU!
Yes you can! You are also right about the sag, you do not want to overload your cable assembly. This includes the weight of the actual cable. At 20' you can start to see sag if you do not take out enough tension when installing the cable. Make sure to get strong enough cable and a long enough turnbuckle.

@@E-rigging THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!
For a longer fence line, should a turnbuckle be installed either end of the line, or it this arrangement ok?
Good question! For longer lengths of cable, you'll just need a turnbuckle with longer take-up length. You don't necessarily need turnbuckles at either end, in most cases. Thanks for the comment, Tom!
I’m not ok with all that Hardware. There is a potential to get scratched. A rope system for raspberries. And reaching in I would definitely scratch myself on the hardware. So my question is, is there a cleaner way to make this cable set up? More seamless?
Great question! If you're looking for something more minimal, you can retrofit cable railing to trellis your raspberries. Head over to our HAAS Cable Railing channel to learn more ruclips.net/channel/UC-vciN54UcfKl-i_Cf8Oz7g . Hope this helps!
