I am repairing my 100 year old sash windows. Each frame has a rope which runs over a pulley and is tied to a counterbalance weight. This rope needs to be attached to the side of the window frame. Most of them have roofing nails hammered through the rope and into the wooden frame. This doesn't seem very scientific.
I note one frame had a clamp which could be crimped round about three inches of the rope and the end screwed into the frame. This looks a better way to do it. I have been unable to find a supplier of these on the internet, and maybe they are not in production any more. Anybody know a source, or can suggest an alternative? Thanks
