Happy to hear positive riwiew from the author. We could call this "in line" version of the machine which really makes threading much simpler and thus the life of a Pyro easier. Not to mention there are practically no powder spills. I checked that Ebay link someone provided here and saw well known wooden design which is much larger than compact machine (H=30cm, L=25cm, W=25cm) I made. As for NC application and drying, it's done in a separate process...you can see more details by clicking the following link:

There is a funnel, where the BP is applied.
The yarns are canalized into the funnels bore and cover the whole inner wall. This way a closed tube is formed - not very stable but tight enough to hold the BP inside.
One may say, there is no string applied to the BP, but sone BP is put into the string (tube).
The second layer is wound in opposite direction to stabilize this tube.

I think i understand now. So for 1,5mm fuse if the strings are 0,3mm thick you must have 12 strings to cover the inner wall of the tube where the fuse is wound for the machine to work and to produce fuse. Right?
Thanks again and Happy New Year to all.

right!
the twelve strings of 0,3mm each will form a closed tube of aproximately 1,5mm outer and 0,85mm inner diameter.
merry christmas and a happy new year - for the last one we are specialists, arent we?

A feature I am including in the design of the machine is a draw rate regulation system. This will keep the draw rate of the fuse through the machine constant with respect to the rotation rates of the spindle plates, regardless of the increasing diameter of the collection spool. This is just a simple friction clutch on the drive shaft of the collection spool.
The most difficult task I foresee is determining the correct draw and spin rates in relation to each other. Can anyone that has built one of these machines advise on a starting point?
