Sparks Withington 581X

 I found a diagram on Nostalgia Air but it doesn't show a dial stringing diagram:

http://www.nostalgiaair.org/pagesbymodel...018825.pdf

I could have a look in Riders, unless that was where Kirk looked it up already. Beitmans as well possibly. I also have a mixture of Canadian and U.S built Sparton service folders, which I can have a look at, though the layout may differ with the nearest Canadian built model.  It honestly doesn't look like it would be too difficult to restring, but then again I've restrung the dial cords on several dozen sets by now so what would take me 20 minutes might be unfathomable to someone else.  Does this set have a short slide rule dial or an aeroplane style dial (pointer in center that sweeps around) ? The aeroplane style is easier.
Regards
Arran
