Somebody (Sperzel?) makes a tuning machine that has a
knurled nut on the string post. You back off the nut,
pull out the old string, slide the new string through
the hole that is exposed. You tighten the nut, which
clips off the excess string on the far side of the
post and grips the string on the near side. You just
tighten the handle in the usual way to tune to pitch
in very few turns. At least that's what their poop
sheet says.
