I'm full of questions as I begin re-assembly after paint. Thanks for your patience.
Even before painting, I felt that my rudder cables might need to be tightened. I have searched the forum. I found plans for a tension guage:

However, I would have expected that even 10 lbs might be too much for the pullies that the cables go through as they turn up toward the tail from level with the floor.
Any pointers on setting this tension. Do I need to build this tension gage and if so, what is correct tension? I have all the drawings, but have not located any guidance on setting that tension.
