No need to apologise Tw - no strings there because it was not intended for there to be any . I don't like them but I had a good opportunity to look up some Rio cuts for NJH. Thanks for the illustrations anyway.
Btw when it comes to terminology is it ok to say string here - or must it always be "side tie"?
