Nicopress swag on aircraft cable

Great video! Was able to explain rigging to my hot date and she was into it. 10/10

I cant find any videos showing the way they are done on my airplane. I have a Maule, I've been to the factory and a guy there showed me when I bought the cables and ends how he tucks the little points of the thimble into the nicopress. It's something they've apparently done for a long time because mine is a 1985 and all the ends are like this. It makes them tighter, neat and you don't have to worry about the thimble flopping around. I just cant seem to get the nicopress up tight enough to get it the way they do. The cable is very snug the whole diameter of the thimble, it's not loose on sides like you see in all these videos.

I think they don’t tuck the ends in. I’ve worked with people before that cut the ears off of the thimbles. They used side cutters and trimmed them off.
