Squaring and Tensioning woes (no replies)

Hi everybody! I've been working on my Tantillus build and have hit a snag when trying to square and tension the X/Y cables. After positioning the XY carriage in the front left corner, I pull the loose end tight and then slide the carriage forward and back a couple times and repeat. The second time I try to tighten the loose end, I end up with so much slack I end up pulling the knotted end right through the holes and out the other side. Anyone else run into this problem?

I've also somehow managed to crack one of the other X/Y ends. It's still together and still moves as a unit but does anyone have any suggestions on how I could mend this before it gets worse?
