I'd like to rotate a 45' pushup mast (a Rohn H50) from the base.  What sort
of guy rings exist that will slip smoothly to avoid winding up the guys?

 

I'd also like to use Dacron rope for the guys, but I'm concerned about
abrasion or cutting where the guy attaches to the ring.  Are thimbles
necessary? The existing guy rings appear to have awfully small holes for
thimbles.

 

Dick, K6KR
