Un-Believable This article should be taken down for safety reasons. #1 You’re calling the cable diameter size incorrectly – It’s actually 1/8″ cable without the nylon coating and with the coating it’s 3/16″ If you looked at the box or spool it would show that it’s 1/8″ cable + The Coating = Overall Diameter of 3/16″ Although some wire rope Cable company’s do incorrectly label their Cable diameter sizes. So again you don’t use 3/16″ hardware to swage a cable that’s 1/8″ You NEVER describe the Cable Diameter with the Nylon Coating ON. Describe it Always as if it’s a cable without the coating. WHY? . . . See #2 #2 You always swage the Ferrule to the bare cable ONLY and NEVER with the nylon coating! #3 The “oval sleeve” you refer to is called an Oval Ferrule and again you should be using 1/8″ Ferrules, NOT 3/16″ I can only hope that you don’t train like you make cable. ps. you made a comment in the article that this side of the cable that you were making is not the “Weight Bearing End” of the cable, WTF, are you serious?? Just because you might not actually be: for example doing seated cable rows with that end of the cable doesn’t mean that there is no load on that side. That ball stop has weight load on it from the other side when: for example you are doing lat pulldowns on the same exact machine that can also do seated cable rows. pss. How to Swage a 1/8″ Ferrule to 1/8″ cable: 1st swage: in the middle 2nd swage: the side closest to the thimble 3rd swage: the side that’s not swaged 3/16″ Ferrule to a 3/16″ cable get 4 Swages
