2Foot Note,
string length we would suggest
rounding to the nearest 5 or 10, eg: 103.5 = 105 and 32.6 = 35 or 32.4 = 30.
First of all Please keep all your working out to yourself,
it more fun that way,
And Thank you for doing so. .
String comes in all different types,
here's a few to get you looking? or it may be how long is the string to be?
If you do a Google search on String you may find the length you need in all the bs.
String Types Gut Strings: Italian Gut strings were already produced in Padoa,
Verona, Venice,
Treviso and Vicenza since the beginning of the 17th century.
The ukulele came into being about 1879,
and All early ukuleles had gut strings.
Gut strings continued to dominate the uk market until at advent of
DuPont's nylon during World War II.
on one hand you have five digits but only four fingers and one thumb this =21
my dad always told me that two and two is four but I always made it equil =22
Aquila Gut Strings are wholly produced in house in Vicenza (60 Km far from Venice),
to individual requirements, beginning from fresh gut, respecting and reviving the old tradition.
This cache will mess with your gray cells
and mix up your head, it messed mine up if you know me you know my favorite number
has three ones and three zeros.
Changes in humidity and temperature will drive you nuts with
old gut strings in keeping your ukulele in tune.
Modern gut ukulele string are better sealed and are more stable.
I still like the warmth and melodic tone of genuine gut strings.
Nylon Strings: When nylon arrived....
the entire ukulele world switched to them....
the strings had more uniform diameters and properties....
they sounded pretty good....
and they were CHEAP to produce.
Most ukulele strings today are made from nylon polymers...
but do not think all nylon is the same.
Different companies use different nylon polymer grades....
so they are not all the same.
Very cheap nylon strings are made from the same nylon strands that they make scrub brush bristles from.
now did you think that‽ Nylon strings take a little while to settle down and take a set.
Even then you have to tweak you uke up to pitch after it has been setting a while without playing.
NYLGUT Strings:
These strings are a patented product of Aquila.
These strings have a fuller sound than the monofilament strings which I like better.
The strings tend to be a little more cut sensitive so don't have the durability of monofilament strings.
Fluorocarbon Strings:
These are brand new to the ukulele world.
Fluorocarbon is a totally different and heavy polymer....
1.6 sg compared to
1.3 sp for nylon.
The polymer is tough so the strings are smaller diameter.
The sound is loud, lively, bright, and crisp....
which makes many "little ukuleles" really become assertive.
FluoroCarbon is more expensive than nylon, so the cost of the strings is more.
Generally these strings are sold in "double" sets. Wound Metal Strings: Strings are wound with metal to give the string more weight and still be very flexible. Generally these metal windings are over a nylon floss core (like dental floss).
If wound strings were not used on the lower notes on a ukulele,
a thick polymer string would be very dead sounding.
Some people dislike wound string because they can "hiss" at you when your drag your finger tips on the windings of the strings.
There are very finely wound strings called "studio" quality that minimize this hiss.
Wound Nylon Strings:
Several makers are now making a new overwrapped wound polymer string.
These are very flexible, sound good, and do a good job.
If you think of a number, Not an odd 1,
above 3 but below 6 the only number left is four yet you had a free choice or did you.
BUT you cannot cut the string off or the winding will unwind ruining the string.
2Foot Note:; you can now forget all you have read,
it's all here! lots of bs here, your job if you take it on is to work out what is not b@@ s#####
then use that to find the numbers required!
I was thinking of a help line, but the number would have to be unlisted.
I will only give help, once the count is over twentyfive ‽
.
Oxford dictionary states that an English ell is typically about 45
and now then N = 25 the first word after the coords is 2FOOT so round that up and you get 25
25 is in the text about 25 times
the rhyme I say is it was a 25 minute job that took three quarts of an hour so here again you have the two numbers 25 and 45
and at the start the T/D was 2.5 and 4.5 I had to change that as it was not liked
.
I am giving up Geocaching in the next year or so as my dog can't walk too far or for very long now .
and it was him who got me out their looking for new places to walk him with a point to go to for me too.
I have now down rated this cache as I have all but given it to you...
Thank you all for the fun I have had
