[quote=leeboweffect]Thanks Mark and Ed.
Measured my shrouds today:
Shroud 1: 20' 5-5/8"
Shroud 2: 20' 5-1/4"
[quote=Edchris177]Do you have a proper swaging tool?[/quote]
I don't, but am planning to buy this tool for the job:

[quote=Edchris177]DO NOT attempt to make your shrouds as your 1st try at swaging.[/quote]
I plan to burn a number of "extra" ovals on old wire until I'm pleased with the appearance as well as the crimp final width dimension which determines the integrity of the swage.

[quote=Edchris177]But why bother?[/quote]
There are a number of folks in my local club that need to replace their rigging. I think this tool will get a good bit of use.[/quote]
