Re: Lift cable

Last year we had 2 nails running parallel to our winch shaft. Those two nails held the nylon strap down to the shaft, and they were zip-tied in place on the ends. It's the first time we ever put nails on a robot. It worked well for the short nylon strap, and I'd imagine it would work fine for non-metal cable, like parachute cord. I'll try to remember to snap a photo tonight.
