Then 225 capillary tubes are sealed at one end to form a knob larger than the screen openings. The other ends are inserted into the holes of the several screens and allowed to hang. These ends are then closed and knobs are formed on them. The templates are then released and the assembly is placed in a cylindrical mold (13 mm. ID.) with the templates positioned in spaced relationship so that one is at each end and the third is in the middle of the capillary tubes. A cement is introduced around the tubes in the mold.
