The main heart of the direct multiplication is a block of brass representing nine rows or ranges of pins. Each row (R<\/strong>) contains 9 pairs of pins the lengths of which represent the products of R<\/strong> by 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.<\/p>\n

The picture opposite shows in the forefront the row “9<\/strong>” with its pairs of pins corresponding (from right to left) to the products of (9 x 1), (9 x 2), (9 x 3), etc.<\/p>\n

When the block is mounted in the body of the machine, the rows are presented vertically, with the row “9<\/strong>” at the bottom and the row “1<\/strong>” on top.<\/p>\n

For a detailed description of this mechanism, please consult the webpage of John Wolff (The multiplier mechanism<\/a>).<\/p>\n<\/div>
