ok, i must ask...where is everyone else's cable breaking. mine was wearing right at the handle and it appeared that it was rubbing on the sheath as it was pulled out. when i replaced it, i just modified the bracket that the handle is on, changing the angle that the cable is pulled from. this seems to work w/ out rubbing. hope this helps. james 'stainls' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ eGroups.com home: http://www.egroups.com/group/dmcnews http://www.egroups.com - Simplifying group communications
