[Fortran] I am not sure my trumpets will work

Hello,

I bought a Fortan kit from Nerdy Gurdy a few weeks ago. I have three questions:

1- My kit only included one small string for connecting the trumpet with the tuning peg. Is that common? Two should be included.

2- I cannot find a way to connect the small string to the tuning peg. No instructions anywhere on the internet. How do I knot it around the peg? It's frustrating.

3- My trumpette strings are placed and tirant. I did not apply rosin nor cotton, but the strings are touching the wheel. Shouldn't they be making noise when turning the wheel? I know it shouldn't be making good sounds, but nothing at all...?

Thanks!
