The device allows us to apply different tensions by changing the number of weighting plates used.
The carriage has several weight plates which are attached to the center hub by a washer attached to the bottom. The device allows us to apply different tensions by changing the number of weighting plates used. The wires are tensioned individually to avoid the potential issue of tensioning them unevenly, thus changing the resonance characteristics. Each plate weighs 5.56g, allowing us the freedom to apply up to 33g of weight to each fiber bundle.
