Re: Spectra Cable Pulley (winder)

Use a bit of creativity. Two andymark aluminum hubs side-by-side make a nice winch pully and are already keyed for the output shaft of a toughbox.....

Re: Spectra Cable Pulley (winder)

Our current plan is to use one of these with the tread removed and plates added to the side. We will have to modify it some and add a hub but we think it should work well.

May I ask where you bought your spectra cable?
