Connecting motor and pulley to the fingers

Step 2: Connecting motor and pulley

Cut about 2 feet of string to thread into the pulley. Loop around the pulley once and tie a knot that will allow the string to be secured to the internal channel of the pulley.

Pulley on channel Thread Knot

Lace one end of the thread through the two adjacent holes in the pulley and tie a knot there as shown. This will prevent thread from slipping around the center channel of the pulley and ensure that the pulley winds as it pulls. Double knot is necessary.
