How to manufacture spare ss cable for sliptips?

Does anybody know if it is possible to manufacture oneself a couple spare cable for the type of sliptips that have a very small ball of metal at the end (around 4mm diameter).

These ball is inserted in a hole in the body of the tip.

Some photo of the sliptip i am thinking about :

I am thinking about using a normal stainless steel soldering machine to put some metal at the end of cable and later sand it with some machine to fit the hole, but i would like to know if there is problems before trying.

Thank you everybody
 
You can purchase these, but i'm not sure of the manufacturing process. Ask your local machinist.
