My partner suggested a snare configuration and said we should use annealed nuts for the cable ends. I tried whacking them with a hammer and the results weren’t pretty.
It dawn on me I have some threaded, probably steel, end stops (?) that can be more easily hammered, but I’m down to 2 dozen and the place I bought them from is no longer in business. Does anybody know where I can get threaded metal (not aluminum) stops that will fit 5/64 or 3/32 cable?
Thanks in advance

Snare shop in IA sounds like their deer stops.
Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

Buy some small steel nuts, heat them cherry red and let them cool slowly and they should them hammer down fine.

Does anyone have Rally Hess contact information? The Snareshop is out. Cumberlands only offers annealed nuts. Schmitt Enterprises doesn’t offer them.

If you can't find what you need at your local hardware store your not looking hard enough. I have a block of steel and a 2lb hammer and I have no problem smashing any small nut down to where It holds perfectly.

Snare shop was out of them. Rally Hess had them and he was a blast to talk to. I bought a couple hundred from him and will probably buy more in the future
