You know what they say, if you have a wooden head, use a wooden helmet. ;=) The only kind of wood I'd drag a steel cable across is Lignumvitae. They used to use it for prop shaft bearings on steamshi

I had the same problem so I bought a 12 inch piece of galvanized strap steel at the hardware store. You know the kind with four countersunk holes already drilled. I screwed it to the floor where the
