Ronn W Posted April 3, 2024 Report Posted April 3, 2024 Making a pasta chittara might be an interesting project but I have not found any good videos, plans or instruction on line. Does anyone have a source for this?? Sample pics..... 2 Quote
wtnhighlander Posted April 3, 2024 Report Posted April 3, 2024 Looks pretty straight-forward to build, although spacing the wires evenly might be tricky. Wonder where one can source stainless steel wire? That looks like 25 to 26 awg, maybe. Quote
Chet Posted April 4, 2024 Report Posted April 4, 2024 McMaster-Carr has some stainless steel wire but I don't know if it fits Ronn's project needs. Quote

I think that installing the strings semi tight and then final tightening is the key to getting it to work properly. 1 Quote
wtnhighlander Posted April 6, 2024 Report Posted April 6, 2024 That would look awesome of you used guitar tuners to tighten the strings! I don't know how much tension is needed, perhaps friction tuning pegs, classicsl style, would do. 1 Quote
