The main cables I will have them custom made with end loops since I am specifying the amount of tension I want. With the tension, suspender spacing and loads all known the shape of the main cable is determined and I can calculte the exact free length knowing also the amount of stretch of the cable per unit load. The length inaccuracy between calculated and installed plus the tensioning will be adjusted by a turnbuckle with 12" play.
Each pipe will be hung by a main cable with vertical suspenders and stayed by two more cabled on the side with the same number of laterals each. Again each lateral is taking 10 lbs.
Of course there are other structures like the abutment and foundation for the cable bridge. But that's easy.
Making connections with ropes is not my cup of tea.
