Thanks Uncle John, now the little wheels in my head moving.

Cool, Rick.  Bolt bridges are fine, but this is kind of a special build.   Maddog uses pieces of white corian sometimes.  That would look nice.  Or a wood one, even if you set a small bolt into it.  Best wishes.

Thanks, I agree on the bolt bridge. I was forced to make nice bridges for the last two I built, because the bolts weren't tall enough. It has a piezo rod underneath in a groove I cut with a Dremel.

Ditto.  Great build!

I like eyebolt saddles, but the rest of this one is so.... refined.  that a classy home made bridge might be more fitting.   Nice work.
