Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

This has kind of turned into a series, but this will be the last one for now, lol.

If I don't write down the test results, I'll forget them!

PC Steel Wire Guide Spacer Can you see it?

You know what I mean!

At this stage, the anchor that was visible had very little twist.

↑The steel wire was misaligned like this.

I guess this misalignment is the problem. (The cause of the misalignment)

Well, I imagine people might think, “From the manufacturer’s perspective, steel wire can’t really be that hard to understand, can it?” but,

There are places where it goes in smoothly, and others where it doesn't. Things like backflow or reverse flow.

That's why they often end up all crumpled, you know.

Next time there are a lot of them, I'll try making them out of steel.

The unit price goes down, and the strength goes up. Maybe there’s room for a little more improvement.

I might change the structure a little, too.

This experiment was a failure in a sense, but it was interesting.

Failure is just part of the process when you're trying to create something new, lol.

See you later.
