Default wire rope fittings?

concerted effort to defeat squirrels scoffing bird feed..

strung a 2mm diameter wire rope between two trees from which to
suspend assorted feeders etc...

However said rope is not level so anything hung on it will slide so I
need some way to anchor the feeders, preferably by creating "stops"
past which they can't slide??


If you can still slide something onto the end of the 2mm wire how about
taking the inner, metal, parts of electrical choc' block connectors and
sliding these along. Then tighten the screws to hold them in place.
These would act as stops for anything sliding and would be cheep (cost
effective) too. Or even a double connector complete with plastic and
use the other half to hang the feeder from?
