<p>I'm experimenting with this one - parts bowl inverted - I'm embedding one disc on the front of the neck at the head end of the box and a second one on the back side of the neck at the tail end. I'll try that as I can always add a rod at a later time. I have recessed this parts tray about a 1/4" into the neck and will hold it down with a couple of pan head screws. …<a href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/306107398?profile=original" target="_self"><img class="align-full" src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/306107398?profile=original" width="576"></img></a></p>

<p> I've notched the bottom of the neck the same as the top inside the box and i'll screw through from the base to secure it ,</p>
<p> The necks fretted and finished , dog bowls fitted to top , just need to cut sound holes and sort out the pickup , that's the next question , I can't decide , keep it simple with a disc piezo or use a rod piezo bridge the same as my other builds , if I go for the disc piezo where's the best place to position it ? .</p>

<p>The neck thru gets attached to the bottom of the box, the false bottom is a separate part of the build. So there`s an air space between the actual box bottom and the false bottom. Another option on the neck thru where it attaches to the box bottom is to cut it back an 1/8" letting it touch at the front and back an inch or so, this will allow the bottom to still vibrate. </p>

<p>Man, I'll bet you were standing in a huge pile of woodchips/shavings after you finished this one. That's some serious carving!</p>
