WOAH. Thats all I can say.
"The way of heaven is like the bending of a bow-
 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."

I am currious as to your choice of string material. All tha expert craftsmanship and you chose artificial sinew. Why?
