That will make the cable kind of disappear. Also, there is normally a mill gondola parked under the Crane which will pretty much hide that cable.
Lew, you could do what I did and use 50lbs fishing line, can hardly see it!
Mike, will fishing line follow the small diameter of the idler pulley at the left end? If so that is a no-brainer.
