				Hi   
    
 Over the weekend I started working on a parking brake. I have looked at the pix in the archives but am still wondering about the best way to attach the cable sleeve to the standoff. I have tried a 1/4" cushion clamp but am not happy with the results (it seems a bit loose).  
    
 Can any of the build gurus suggest a better way?  
    
 Inquiring minds need to know....

				Hi Deems
 
 Your setup is very similar to mine (I shamelessly borrowed from the various
 methods posted). It looks like you used a 1/4" cushion clap to hold the
 cable sleeve. Is this correct? 
 
 Cheers

				This is very similar to the way Vans have you termiate the cabin heat pull
 cable in other models.  One thing they suggest in the plans for 2 seat side
 by sides is to use some safety wire wrapped around the cable outer either
 side of the clamp and bridged over the top of the clamp.  The safety wire
 "cathes" in the spiral of the outer and helps prevent it from slipping in
 the clamp.

				Les, I can't remember whether it was a DG2 or 3 or DG4, I've got a 
 variety of Adel clamp sizes and I used one which didn't allow any movement.
