the bridge position is over sound recess or lid recces??
excuseme my poor english, i am from argentina
The recess in the pic Wes posted will make quite a bit of difference in the sound it puts out. You just have to make sure the bridge is in the right spot so the vibrations get transferred to the part of the lid that is over the recess.
Thanks, this diagram answers my question nicely. i've actually have been cutting an 1/8" recess but became unsure after seeing some plans online. Thanks again

Eh? Can you send a pic? Not sure what you mean by "little space between lid and neck". I usually attach the neck to the lid but I also put in 1/8" sound recess.

Do you attach the neck to the lid at just the 'lid recess' area (as indicated)? That appears to be a total of 1.5" of lid/neck contact, is that enough contact area to keep the box lid attached to the neck -- durably? Do you just glue the neck to the lid or do you attach using another method?
