We’ve had rope on here before but it would always get loose and fray, I also always wanted to mes with rigging so decided its the perfect excuse to buy a crimper.

Drilled holes into the pipes to put the eyelets. Got two cables up for now, at least the hard part is done, running the cable and crimping isn’t so bad. The drilling and stuff was the hard part

    nice metal clothes pins

    My mental alarm is going off, but maybe unnecessarily. Please make sure they’re sealed and regularly check that there are no chips in the coating, because any iron in them is going to rust when regularly exposed to brief periods of moisture and leave stains on your laundry. If they’re coated in aluminum, they should be fine. If they’re entirely aluminum, I’d worry about their strength for things like duvets, but for regular clothing and linens in mild wind, they should be fine.
