missing photos / individually looped strings, etc.

Hi Terry,

Check the archives.

I've measured the results more than once, and they are consistant. There
are three situations where less overpull is needed.

1. full perimeter metal plates.
2. individual hitch pins for each string
3. laminated sound boards (some times but not always)
