Cut your wire. Thread it through the intermediate posts.

Insert the wire rope into the swage stud bottlescrew end and crimp using a hydraulic swaging tool. Do the same for the other swage stud bottlescrew end.

Thread the swage stud bottlescrew thread into the rivet nut. Do the same for the other swage stud bottlescrew end. Thread with hands first and tension the swage stud bottlescrew with a bottlescrew spanner.
