Seeing as the list is a bit slow with builders, I'm going to chime in here. After a lot of late night building my wood gear legs are finally finished. It took a lot longer to build the wood gear then I though but then again everything takes me 10 times longer to build then I think it should.Also, whom ever came up with the idea of using the split nuts to hold the cable while swaging was a genius. Photo attached of these wonderful things. I found them at OSH Hardware store in the electrical section. I would bet you could find them at most good hardware stores. I have been using the Swage-it Tools #2 Swaging tool and it works great. I even cut open a sleeve to see how well it was crimping it on to the wire. I was really impressed by its area of contact and the swaged fitting. Also, it is very easy to use by my self.I will post larger pictures to my website in a few days.Chris TracySacramento, CaWebsite at http://www.Westcoastpiet.com________________________________________________________________________________
