Description: The thick main cable, its wires pressed into a smooth round mass and held by temporary steel bands, runs diagonally into a large ring-shaped machine; four workers in hard hats and heavy jackets stand and climb around it, and the water and the far shore lie below. Each of the two main cables of the Golden Gate Bridge is some 92 centimetres thick.
