Europa-List: Potential problem with second Nicopress and dull SS control

Gidday, 
So, I've tried using a second incompressible, but am now concerned I have do
ne that correctly. I placed the second one up against the other one, and as t
hey compress, we know they exude outward, even a little bit. I reckon the ca
ble I between the 2 could now be under tension, continually, and possibly qu
ite a lot. Whatever stress it is preloaded is an equivalent weight, which in
 essence would minimise the stress loading on the cable. 
I've Lao got cable kicking around that looks more like gal than Stainless St
eel, but I know I have only ever bought the right stuff 7x7 3/32" dia contro
l cable. Is there a reason  why over time Stainess Steel cable can go dull o
ver time?

now the loads but Europa may, or you could drop an email to Andy Draper at t
