<div>You could leave the tension on but it would be better to make a
pattern</div>
<div>and supply the end measurements with a note stating that the
pattern</div>
<div>was taken over the dampers.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>The pattern will give the configuration of the hitch and bridge
pins with</div>
<div>the curvature of the agraffes. The end speaking length
measurements</div>
<div>will establish the correct speaking length proportions of the
pattern</div>
<div>on the bench accounting for the pattern bulging over the
dampers.</div>
