Those are nice photo essays and John's too.

Curious - how did you handle the lock screw on clamping the cable in the slider knob. I kept thinking of a threaded metal insert or just fill a drill hole with epoxy and tap the set screw into that?

I have one friend who just drove a set screw into his hardwood slide handle and it works fine.
