Hi Steve,

I was afraid someone would ask. I can't find the spool I bought about 100 years ago when Tony Frackowiak put me on to it, but my micrometer says it is .020 inch diameter. I use brass rod end couplers into conventional clevises. I fold the control line wire over and push it into the coupler and then fill it with solder. Never had one pull out. You can see by the dust I haven't flown this plane in a long time.
