Wire bracing
Posted: Fri Feb 15, 2013 7:08 pm
Howdy,
Allways been somewhat taken with the SS wire bracing systems I've seen use on some minor building renos. The kind that has a lattice of tensile SS wire used to add a distinct look and some structural element to handrails, dividing fences, walkways etc.
More a trades question so please chip in if your familiar with this stuff.
I'd like to add a thin SS wire bracing for looks to my new column. I've found SS wire and crimps from fishing tackle places that looks to be the goods but I can't determine quality or grade btw.
Is there a guru supplier for this type of stuff? Really would like to have a chat before deciding.
Also can you get "mini" tensioners to suit small wire diameters?
cheers
