Bridge glued on
The koa concert is soon done. I woke up quite early today and started rubbing out the finish, then I fitted the Peghed tuners, and then it was sort of just the bridge left.
Wow. Not sure where my last comment went. Was saying that I love the clamps you're using. Where did you get them? I'm about to glue the bridge for my Poobah build. I might need some specialist kit ;-)
He he, I need to moderate comments before they appear. The clamps came from Micromark, I think. There has to be a better way of getting similar though, Micromark is a strange (but good) business in New Jersey.
Wow. I wonder if something like this would do? http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_trksid=p2050601.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.Xdeep+throat+clamp&_nkw=deep+throat+clamp&_sacat=0&_from=R40
Yes, some of those look good. I think I got the 3,5 inch model, here: http://www.micromark.com/c-clamps-3-1and2-inch-deep-throat-opens-2-inch-pkg-of-2,7600.html
