Never Saddle a Dead Horse

Adding Thimbles to new Wire Rope.

[@user-fn3vr4mq8k]

Your right and another thing is proper torque.

[@vertyisprobablydead]

Yeah that's why people searched this.

[@jwmfarms]

Always alternate your cable clamps!

[@JDeWittDIY]

Actually, the opposite is true.

[@Look_What_I_Did]

NEVER alternate, and they should be spaced about 6x cable diameter apart.

[@MinkieWinkle]

Absolutely not, YOU NEVER alternate your clamps EVER. the saddle should never be on the dead end of the steel rope. you will only crush the working end, and compromise it's lift capacity

@@Look_What_I_Did Correct.

[@Chris-Fennimore]

@@MinkieWinkle You are correct.
