Dane,
Marsden and Schramm before him couldn't interpretate correctly Heron's diagrams for the euthytone because they hadn't the Cremona, Caminreal or Xanten remains at hand like we have.
I think that the centre stanchions flush with the front face of the frame is the correct picture.
Notwithstanding, now matter how more or less proficiently the energy stored in the springs is used, the arms' heels still have to hit the centre stanchions after the discharge and SOMETHING (a notch, a pad, we shan't know for sure until a real wooden frame is recovered
) will be needed there to absorb the impact.

It\'s all an accident, an accident of hands. Mine, others, all without mind, from one extreme to another, but neither works nor will ever.
