Spelter sockets are indeed very nice, I had Phillystran install them on
11,200 pound cable before Big Grips were approved. I have never installed
them myself, I wonder safe they to do as a DIY project for someone with no
training or testing abilities.

Doug,

Crosby sells spelter sockets and epoxy kits
https://www.thecrosbygroup.com/products/sockets/spelter/mckissick-416-open-s
pelter-sockets/

They show up on the big auction  site for under $50 each.  By the time you
buy thimbles, a shackle,  and the 4 clamps, it becomes cost neutral, and
yeilds a stronger connection to boot.
