Reply to: Hobie 16 rigging cheaper to make own wire lines?

[quote=ctcataman]Anyone have a good system for getting 1x19 to wrap around the thimble? I can get them just about right, but the transfer to the nicopress crimper, it backs off 1/8 inch and messes up the operation. I tried a little wood working clamp, and a needle nosed vice grip, both are hard to manage. I tried using a piece of 1/4 inch steel tube to help prebend, then shove it into a deep socket about 3/4 inch, to temp hold it. It get me close. Good thing I have the right crimp tool, extra nicopress sleeves, and 30 extra feet of wire rope for practice. Thanks in advance guys. John[/quote]
