I have a group project where we must build a small scale, cable-stayed bridge, with only one pylon (it's really an observation deck). The actual bridge is going to be a beam one.
I'm just wondering if anyone knows of some decent joints/fixtures that can be used to hold the wood pieces together? We're looking into glue but not so sure whether this might hold up? What about angle brackets?
Also we're kinda stuck as to how we should attach the wire (0.7mm in diameter) to the actual deck and pylon. We're definitely not going to use glue. We've looked into this small black rubbery ball shaped thing, but the opening is a bit too big for our wire and we can't find anything smaller. Anyone have any ideas for what material or fixture we could use?
Thanks.
