Hi all,
A young friend has been playing violin for several years but didn't know about barbs in horse tail and other natural fibers. (Horsetail hair is one of the fibers used for the bow of a violin, cello, etc.)
I tried googling, including using "pictures" in my search terms, but didn't find satisfying results.
Does anyone know of site(s) with microscopic images of horsetail hair and other natural fiber barbs?
Thanks very much!
David
Does this suit at all?
all?
Hi VP,
Thanks very much for this suggestion!
*grin* Not what I expected, but the text sounds like it has some electron photomicrographs of some animal and human hair. (I can't see them so the googling was somewhat ambiguous for me.)I'm forwarding your own and other people's suggestions to my friend, who's in ninth grade now.
Cheers
David
Hi mirjam,
Thanks very much for your suggestion - my friend spends a lot of time at the library so even searching for this book will probably help him find similar photographs.
Cheers

David,
Rather than using "pictures" in the search term, you can use
Hi Laura,
Thanks very much for your suggestion! - I forwarded it to my friend. (I tend not to think about such online visual resources because I'm blind.)
Cheers
