Check; http://www.scroungecentral.com/dcable.pdf for closeout cable
bargains.
The sheet changes frequently and I've bought from them on several occasions
and have been quite happy with their prices on these overstock and cut
lengths.
They now have stk. no.CLAR1610Z71 which is 71 ft. of 3/8" 7x19 strands
galvanized cable for a total of $11.79 plus shipping. Can't beat that with a
stick! It's a great place for bargain prices on new cable. They also have
other 5/16" and 3/8" cables listed if you need longer lengths or want
Stainless Steel rather than galvanized.

When I read that AN Wireless charges $3 per ft. for their safety
lifeline system option (which includes the anchorage plates, cable
clamps and thimbles, and turnbuckle, in addition to the cable)
http://www.anwireless.com/lifeline.html
to be used in conjuction with the gizmo that grabs onto the cable
http://www.anwireless.com/ascender.html
it struck me as a terrible price, and I wondered whether I could get the
cable, thimbles, and turnbuckle for muuch less locally and buy just the
anchorage plates from Dan.
So far, the largest such cable I have found around here is only 5/16"
(vs. Dan's 3/8" cable), and it costs $2.43 per ft. anyway.
So, unless I am missing something, Dan's price for the whole kit and
kaboodle is pretty good.
