The strands are then spun together and placed on the dryiug frames. An American E violin string re- quires six strands, the European four. The strands, at oue end fastened to an upright post, are twisted together while still damp and pliable by means of a spinning whecl. Taken from the drying frames, the strings are cut in lengths, coiled and boxed "fi olled pa- per for shipment. Te polish the strings very fine emery paper Jaid on a grooved aluminium block is used. While the the covered block is passed over the strings, polishing as niany at one time as there ure grooves In the block. It ean be seen that from the manner Io which the strands are twisted the ef- fect of polishing is to weaken the string.
