Several of you advise against reusing Big Grips, and while I can understand your trepidation bcuz of the loss of the 'sand' in the fixture, and maybe their 'gripping form', my thoughts are simple.I have a large tower to put up (150' R55) and have plenty of 3/16 and 1/4" guy to support it. Said guys have grips on them and I plan to reuse the grips. However, when I do, I will secure them with the same wire clamps many of you use WITHOUT grips - bend the guy back thru the thimble and secure it with clamps.  So why can I not use clamps ON the grips to assure nothing will move/slip ?!?
