As the first two posters indicated, the best way is to pass the cable through a small hole that
must rotate with the shaft. If you are planning to wrap the cable directly around the shaft, try adding a wheel hub, passing the cable through one of the bolt holes in the hub, and placing a crimp (or even a knot) behind the hole that's too big to pull through.
