Default Stupid question on twin feedline (air)

buy it already built. Why wear yourself out building stuff available on
the shelf?

My 1970 edition of the ARRL Antenna Book shows how to construct open
wire line. The insulating spacers have holes near their ends and their
ends are also grooved for the line conductors.

A small tiewire is run through the hole and its ends are tightly wrapped
around the transmission line conductors to hold everything in place.
