Cable Tension Tool

I had to make some adjustments to the bedroom slide, video from BAL was easy to follow.

They had a cool gadget to ensure proper tension on the cables. Anyone use this before?

I guessed on the 1/4" and 1/2" deflection but a tool like this would be good for those of us with OCD.

1/4 and 1/2 deflection is an easy to understand reference and is much cheaper than spending over 100.00 on a tool that will only get used once in a while. I love tools, but just couldn’t justify this expense when the OEM provides the deflection reference.
To each is their own, and enjoy the precision !

I agree, hard to spend that much on a tool rarely used
