There's always a hitch

On a piano with a well-designed string scale, yes. But on many pianos =
the tension seems to wander wildly between adjacent notes (shouldn't be, =
but it is). Kinda make you wonder why a designer would resort of tying =
off each string.

    It is amazing that a 180 around a hitch pin is sufficient to =
separate two different tensions. =20
  There IS almost no difference in tension, even on a string shared by =
two notes. The difference in pitch between the two notes comes not from =
a difference in tension, but by a difference in speaking length.
