In a previous post. Howard Lewis mentioned the above tension meter. I remember reading an article in MEW about it. I decided to look it up again and possibly make one.

I cannot find it in my copies of MEW, although I am certain that is where I read it. Looking up Jaques list of publications, there is an article in EIM about the construction. I stopped taking EIM in the early 2000’s so that could not have been the article I read, can anyone tell me if a similar article was published in MEW and if so what issue?

Thanks in advance,

Andrew.

Conundrum solved. The article I remembered reading was by Gary Wooding, not Jaques Maurel! It appeared in MEW 319. Thanks MikeK for the interesting link.
