Cables need to be banished



I am having more trouble with brake cables than I would have figured. First there is this little bear of a piece. While trying to install the cable through it. The cotter pin decides to throw in the towel and give up the ghost. It being 9pm on sunday. I make a cotter pin out of a bobby pin, which works fantastic with some filling and bending.
Then installing this was such a beast since I realized after taking this picture that I had to put the pin in place while it was on the bike. So I made TWO cotter pins out of bobby pins since I had to cut the first one off.
