The first few pictures are how I string the bed on my LT-15.
The last picture is the rope being secured to the side of the bed with a tie wrap which keeps the rope from dropping beneath the bolts along side the bed.

Thanks Kevin, nice pics.
Kevin,
How are you compensating for the sag of the string, in twenty feet you will have about an 1/8 of bow? In a past post, a person found this unacceptable and was using a lazer to level his mill.
