Has anyone used a swaging tool and ferrules on phillystran?
I'd like to use the 3/16" phillystran and substitute ferrules
instead of using cable clamps. My application would range from
supporting wire antennas and boom supports for some 30'
Force 12 beams. Seems like a neat way to go except for the
cost of the swaging tool ($100) at my local Home Depot.
