Longitudinal Calculations

[Bernhard Stopper]

Joe,

ok i´m not right sure if you are making joke with me but i understand now if
you are not familiar with metric, 1025 mm speaking length tells you not
immediately that this is the string length of key E of a Steinway model B
(211 centimeters long)
and the measures are really 0.95mm for core wire and 0.55mm for the wrap
wire diameter

let´s unite on a measure we are discussing in to avoid misunderstandings

regards

bernhard
