    Nice!!!... yum yum... there is a Pizza lifter you can get from the £1 shop, thats a bit like this reso plate

    but that's a real nice detail!

    Yes Mark the holes were added after spinning - would not be possible to spin it with the holes drilled first it would distort and buckle and a chance of the forming tool going through the hole could cause injury

    Did you add the holes after you spun it?

    Thanks Mark - the reso coverplate is made from a Chocolate/candy tin Lid - spun it on the lathe :)

    Nice work JuJu! I really like the reso cover.

    Thanks UJ & Wes most kind of you both - just wound the pickup :) need to solder the hook-up wires on and get the pickup mounted under the coverplate with the magnet/Pole sticking through the front hole in the coverplate
