Tension Gauge for 1/2" wire

[Dennis1]

Well, after waiting patiently for 2 weeks I replied to both the Australian reseller and the UK Supplier asking for a response. I'm still hunting for a tension gauge that will work with 1/2 inch wire line. I'll keep everyone updated on my progress and am happy to run down any leads that anyone may offer. It's odd not finding anything on this.

Again, I appreciate all the feedback that I've already received and look forward to more comments, notes or suggestions. Brion offered some wisdom on the dynamic tuning, but I'm concerned with the higher tension on the upper shrouds that I'll either have too much tension or as likely will set the lines too loose because I don't think they will flop around at the higher tension like lower shrouds would when under too little tension. It's tough being wet behind the ears
