    Making some good process, so I started on the rudder cables. I was swaging the rudder cable bushings on the adjustable rudder handles side. But as I finished both of them I started to doubt if I didnt swage them too tight. The washer supplied sits on top of the ferrule, so I would need to grind some of the washer side to get it to fit nicely. What do you guys think?

    It does look a bit suspect, but it's hard to tell with the heat shrink on there. There are gauges to check for proper crimps. I found a helpful article here:
