Well, you really don't want egg insulators for this application --
that's not what they are designed for.

Their intended use is for guy wires, to break them up into non-resonant
lengths for towers that will be used to support a transmitting antenna.
Furthermore, if the egg insulator should happen to break, the sections
of guy wire will still be looped together, still providing mechanical
integrity.

- The insulator you should be talking about is
- the classic plastic or glass ribbed insulator.
