Default Winch line "service"

Picked up a new steel winch line for insanely cheap the other day.

It's about 50' too long for my drum. So I'll need to chop it and add the little tab at the end to screw it in place on my drum.
Does anyone have any advice on how or where I can get this taken care of? I checked the usual big box stores for the tab- nope.

Places in the valley would be best but I'm willing to do a little driving.

Cutoff wheel on the angle grinder, a battery terminal deal and a new screw from ACE. Was easy enough I guess. Now I just need to break in the line.
