Mt 010.gif

Part of the text of MT10 says "... und erst den rechten Griff und Construction zeigen und weisen werde." There has been discusion on the Bessler Forum as to the correct translation of this phrase. Probably the most correct word for word translation should say "... and will first show and indicate the right/correct grasp/handle and construction." Note that grasp and handle both deal with grabbing by the hand. It seems that both English and German have dual meanings for the words right/rechten. It seems they both can mean "to understand" something, as in "grasp the meaning." So some take this to mean, "correct understanding and construction" or as John Colins has it, "grasp the correct construction."

Others think it means "correct hand and construction." Bessler may have been trying to say that it's constructed backwards; that it's wrong (left) handed and that at the appropriate time he will portray it differently and will show/indicate the correct (right) hand and construction. He might might have used a little play on words here.

MT015 is CCW, if this is the correct translation, then it might have a link to the solution.

The original MT10 drawing in J. Collins publication has only 15 arms....the 8-11 quadrant only has 2 versus 3 arms....interesting.
