Default Water rudder steering cables

This is how I made them.

I used Ö 1,0 mm braided Dacron line found in the boat stuff store, fishing lure clips, fishing rod tying thread and some 1,0 mm aluminum sheet and some elbow grease.

The little piece of Aluminum you see, is exactly what you might see on a small camping tent, only much smaller. It makes it possible to adjust the length of the steering cable.

Note the knot at the end of the line.

Knot and binding is secured with thin CA.

Cheers,
Ikaros
