[TowerTalk] turnbuckle safety wires

[Jim Thomson]

Has anyone seen a turnbuckle that also had nuts or nylocks   on  one or both sides of where each threaded rod screws in ? 
To pull that off, the nuts at one end would have to be reverse threaded.   For a max effort, 4 x nylocks could be used,
2 at each end.   But a simple safety wire would be a lot simpler.... like something  made from 10 –12 ga solid steel..and 
fed through everything.   And yes, I have had a turnbuckle come right off...twice, on a previous install back in 1977. It was
elevated a good 10-12 ft above ground too, so no chance it was vandals.  Why that one turnbuckle and never the other 2 baffles
me.  The fix was a safety wire fed through everything.
