You could use the top picture for a bridge. It would be a little low for my taste. I would put it on a piece of wood to bump it up a little. Anytime I use something smooth for a bridge, I like to file little string guides in them.

I'm sure you'll get lots of advice.

Happy building!

Yeah they should work fine and I think it would look great. I was thinking about using a piece of fretwire in a bit of box liner as a bridge which should give a similar result.

I like to use brass screws On a moveable wood base with a groove to sit the screw. Then u can mess with size of screw and underlying wood for adjustments. But what u got would look nicer no doubt.

You could use short pieces of brass tube to get the height similar to this
