    What a fascinating project! So few give thought to what goes into what many think is a simple cable, but in reality its far more complicated, especially to get it accurately done. Once again Dale takes us to school!

    20:00 Oh the 'joy' of completing a really good solder end then looking down on the workbench and spotting the adjuster sitting there!

    Excellent as usual Dale. Those were long cables. That bloke must have long arms.
    Best wishes, Dean.

      Hey Dean, yes indeed, he said it was for a chopper, and it was too high for him too, so he was cutting it down so he could safely ride it.

      Hey Alex, you know I just have never signed up for it. I just didn't want people giving me money, money is very hard to earn on RUclips, but I would much prefer working for it. I am so thankful you are watching and commenting and hope maybe a thumbs up if I deserve it. I appreciate each and every one of my subscribers. Thanks for letting me know you are enjoying the videos. It's enough, really it is. Thank You!

      Hey Robert, just did a quick search on ebay......man you are in luck OEM, and aftermarket, any size you want, and very reasonable prices. I wish they were so easy to find for the older ones I work on.
