Bridge and holes and stuff

I finished pressing the frets in, after a wash coat of shellac. I must be doing something right, it only took me 45 minutes or so. 



And after the frets are in place I can position the bridge lengthwise and sideways. 



Another of the many advantages of this design; look at the easy clamping of the bridge!



Then I made the hole for the carbon fibre tube around which the strings will go, and drilled the slanted holes for the pegs. 



This last pic is to serve as a reminder of the bridge profile. In case I ship this before I make a longer blank.
