Its still in the experimental stage.. but I will try and draw a picture for you. The basic idea is more or less this. Strings run through bridge pins as they do now, except the bridge pins are notched with a slot big enough to accept the string snugly and hold the string well off the bridge. A half round is positioned so as to deflect the string plane upwards... effectively insuring secure string contact with the half round, which is clamped by the string tight against the bridge. Bridge pins probably have to be threaded and screwed into the wood of the bridge to keep them tight enough over the long term. The position of the halfround is interesting, and I think can be used much like Wapins middle bridge pin is used. In anycase... the few experiemental installations I have tried so far on junkers seems very promising. I believe in open source designing... so I post this to the general list in case anyone finds it interesting enough to have a wing at.
