SAWEEETTT!!!!!!
Looks good.  I think that you could call it a weissenborn given the hollow body.  What is the distance between the E strings at the nut and at the saddle? I have photos of my lap steel on my page.  It is my favourite instrument.  I also meant to ask what the trapeze was off.
1 5/8" at nut and 2" at the bridge.  trapeze was a lot of 4 buy from ebay.  maybe for an older kay guitar

ver nice , i got a fretboard looking for a home ....mmmmm
