The three contacts C1 C2 C3 must be the same distance apart as the centres of the link heads, and so situated as to lie on the arcs of circles described by the links. The binding post T3 is connected with the two outside contacts which may be flat-headed brass nails driven in almost flush with the top of the wooden base by wires lying in grooves under the base, and T4 with the central contact.
