Anemia is usually classified based on the size of RBCs, as measured by the mean corpuscular volume (MCV). Anemia can be microcytic (MCV typically less than 80 Î¼m3 [80 fL]), normocytic (80 to 100 Î¼m3 [80 to 100 fL]), or macrocytic (greater than 100 Î¼m3 [100 fL]).
Place the bridge on the violin in its place and using a pencil, I use a carpenter pencil with the end flat, scribe a line on both sides of the feet. This will give you the angle you need for the bridge feet. Slowly cut the feet down to this line making the feet slightly thicker than 1/16 inch. When finished, place the bridge on top of the violin, at the proper angle, ninety degrees at the back. Check the fit by shining a light under the feet.
Rosining your Violin Bow. Rosin should be applied, at most, only once per playing session. If you apply too much rosin, it will attract dirt and shorten your bowhair's life. You only need to apply about 5 to 7 strokes of rosin, most of the time. To apply rosin, hold the rosin in your left hand and your bow in your right. Use your usually bowing motion to rub the hair against the rosin cake. Use long smooth strokes at a slightly slow bow speed (compared to playing speed). You can go slower if you want. Be sure not to touch your bowhair to your hand.
