The cable guard can be anything that will keep the cable from coming
off the pulley.  I made mine with a piece of spruce.  I cut it to the contour
of the pulley, sanded it down to just above pulley height, then painted 
it with epoxy.  I drilled two holes and bolted it in place and used 
"wood washers" that actually overlap the pulley.  My guard actually 
follows the contour of the pulley for about two inches.  

If you're talking about the actual pulley bracket, I'd suggest using 1/8"
aluminum angle.  Wick's carries the size that you can cut the bracket
from a solid piece.  I tried the thinner stuff and didn't like the way
it flexed.
