  1. A few observations: 1) It appears that in the Chinese fuse manufacturing setup, the take-up spool runs independently of the tensioning pulley. To clarify: a FIXED DIAMETER pulley draws the threads through the machine, as it has a full wrap of the "finished" fuse around it. AFTER this pulley, the fuse is wound onto a take-up spool (which probably uses very little tension so as to not interfere with the pulley). 2) Chinese manufacturing process has two "tracer lines" which run through the funnel and ensure that the powder flows evenly into the first die. Perhaps in an amateur setup, these "tracer lines" could be slightly DAMPENED with a saturated KNO3 solution. This would likely pull the dry powder into the center of the first die. (My machine is up and running with an icing sugar test. I'm just waiting for my BP to dry before I crank out my first length of visco!) -Ahri
