And where should i look to buy them offline? Well, as I spend the week building (vacation), I'm finding that I need to shorten my aileron control cables.... Rerouting them around the new landing gear has produced more slack than the adjusters can take up.... The ends are wrapped around a teardrop shaped metal sleeve with a crimp fitting behind it... I've heard 'nicopress' mentioned before... Is that what these are? Also, is this a hardware store item, boat part, car/bike thing, or will I absolutely have to get the fittings and tool (or get the fittings put on) at an aircraft specialty store? _______________________________________ Search the KRnet Archives at http://tugantek.com/archmailv2-kr/search.
