     Woof--followed your link, and looked at some of your pics.  Awsome.
Had to hold on to chair with one hand though.  I don't do heights.  I do
envy those who can.

A SIMPLE WIRE TENSION METER
Build it yourself for about $5.00
I would guess a cables a cable, this should work, it's cheap enough. It'd works for the HT 12.5 gauge wire I use doing the cattle fencing. try the link.
