Step 1 – With the strings cut evenly slide the top of the ball onto the strings followed by a washer.
Step 2 – Tie a knot at the bottom of the strings.
- Instead of tying a knot, you can also use a metal string crimp at the bottom of the strings.
Step 3 – Attach the pull cord to the bottom half of the ball by tying a knot or using a metal string crimp. Then screw the two halves together.
