Have you ever had a broken bass string on your upright piano?

In this upright piano "Elegy", the bass string broke off (C) the second octave. The break happened on the top (becket) string pin. You could make a loop in the break area and place the string, but then the winding of the string would go beyond and lie on the bass bridge, which is not allowed. Therefore, a decision was made to turn a string over, that is, where there were rings on the top (becket) of the pin, to make a loop, and where there was a loop, to make rings (it turned out to be 1.5) and install it. Max demonstrates that this works. If you have a broken string, it's not a sentence. Try to come up with a solution and install it, even if it's upside-down.
