We give a deterministic polynomial-time construction of strong thin trees. Given a finite k -edge-connected loopless multigraph on at least one vertex, the algorithm constructs a spanning tree meeting every cut in at most a $C/k$ fraction of its edges, for a universal constant C . The running time is polynomial in the binary input length, including when parallel-edge multiplicities are encoded in binary.
