ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus are provided for forming glass filaments wherein a transfer guide means is movable between a strand threadup position and a transfer zone immediately adjacent the primary attenuation means, said transfer guide being adapted to move a strand about to be restarted which is being advanced by a secondary attenuation means into contact with the primary attenuation means to be advanced thereby and to release such strand when said transfer guide is at a predetermined zone to permit the transfer of such strand being advanced by the secondary attenuation means to the primary attenuation means in the absence of reducing the speed of the primary attenuation means.
