Graham,
        Just a thought, (I'm not a builder yet, but have been watching these
discussions about the dearth of room in the "tunnel") It makes sense to raise
the cable as much as possible, but from a longevity standpoint, shouldn't the
pulley be as large a radius as will fit? Small braided or polyfilament cables
destroy themselves with internal friction at a rate inversely proportional to
their working radius.
