[CAUT] 1098 slight redesign

[Jim Busby]

Ric,

FYI, (and for the math) the backscale on #1 (A0) is about 82mm. it was
41mm. The length of all (backscale) was increased, and the bridge is now
straight. This should make a difference in force. No? I'll measure other
notes if you want.

Regards,
Jim Busby

p.s. Are you still getting bogus emails from my stolen address?

Thanks David, and Greg.

I understand what you say below well enough.  I was thinking more along 
the lines of the direction of the downward force on the bridge.  
Changing the angles front and back alter this yes ?  But upon thinking 
on Gregs reply... I suppose the change might be insignificant at that.  
I'll see if I can get time to play around with some numbers a bit later 
for fun just to see what a 3 mm change in bridge height would result in.

Cheers
RicB

-------
You are only raising the bridge so that you can put on vertical hitches.
Since the string will ride higher at the hitch, the increase in bridge
height will not have any effect on the bearing except now you will be
able
to adjust it however you want.
