... but for the life of me, I can't recall its significance. I found the cotton configuration that made the d" chanterelle stable enough to tune the movable bridge, and could then put the whole keyboard in tune. I saw a pattern develop, though, that I know I've seen before: The octave tangent strikes the string at a 90-degree angle, and all the others seem to be leaning away from it. That is to say, the tangents for the higher notes incline toward the wheel, and those for the lower notes, toward the pegbox, as if the keys were placed too closely together. What does this mean?
