OK, Hesh that is a great looking bridge. And it's going to look great on the L-00.
Very well done and thanks for the tutorial. Good job.

VERY nice, Hesh! But the real question is--does it pass the "Lacey" test? I'm trying to come up with a design from scratch right now--if I could only give myself some useful advice....

Loved that tutorial and all your bridges brother Hesh!
The bridge slotting jig you used, did you build it yourself? WOW, looks like a dream to use, got any plans to share on that bro? Serge |

I like how you use screws to hold the bridge when its under the slotting jig. I have been using double stick tape...

Great tutorial Hesh, and I think the shape will suit the L-OO perfectly. I like system of holding the blank down for the slot routing using screws. I also do this having first seen it over on Mario's site, though he cuts the slot on the table router, while I use my DeWalt laminate trimmer. What do you use for the countersink on the pinholes? It's something that I have never been happy with and I'm thinking of finishing them with a spherical stone in the drill. I love your stealth bridge, I'm going to shamelessly copy that. Colin Colin |

Thanks Hesh, I'll have to hunt round the stores over here (we don't have Woodcraft) and see if I can find something similar. I just tried one of my stones and I have to say it did a great job though, leaving an almost polished surface. Colin |

That's a very nice bridge Hesh. Do you cut your slot in one pass or make a few passes? Which bit do you use?
Great tutorial!  |

Hesh, that looks fantastic my friend! I picked up a few very good trick in that tutorial! Thanks! I was working it the other way around. I'll start by drilling the holes FIRST now... Now why didn't I think of that on my own... Sheesh! 
I really dig that new bridge. It's a perfect mix of traditional and your 'stealth' design... Very very sexy...(the bridge, not you!  )
Keep up the great work. I can't wait to see that baby all done up, better yet, I can't wait to try her!!! |
