i use fender saddles and copy bridge plate and bend mild steel then your intonation and height are adjustable
Very clever, thanks for the idea, it just never stops getting interesting
I used an old cake server spoon
The blades from a metal vegetable steamer work pretty well as trapeze-y-like tailpieces, especially for 4-strings. Just screw it on and string it up. Plus, you get something like 18 of them out of one vegetable steamer.

Very cool man, what a great idea and it looks great, thanks
The bottom section of the steamer makes a great cover for a resonator.
