I thought, for the record, I should share this with the list.

Hi Dan,
    Thinking it over a bit after posting, my memory was a bit off ­ it
needed one more plain wire note to have an offset, and the wrapped strings
needed to be a bit lower in offset. The wrapped should be +0.4, +0.3, +0.2
descending by half steps from the top one, with the plain at ­0.6, -.04,
-0.3, -0.2 ascending from the bottom one (one more altered note in the plain
series than I gave earlier). It had been many years since I last thought
those numbers through. There¹s an interplay between the numbers of the
wrapped and plain. Descending, beginning with the M3 which has ­0.2 as the
additional offset for its bottom note, the M3s are 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.6 wider,
then 0.6, 0.6, 0.6, 0.6 narrower (the M3s with wrapped strings on the
bottom, plain on top). Then, it jogs to 0.4, 0.3, 0.2 wider. So a total of
11 M3s are affected.
    Hope this helps.
