Hullo Mike.I had an idea that was the best way to do it but as a relative newcomer,i wasn't absolutely certain.Thanks very much for that bit of info...
The project is kind of on hold after I managed to gouge my thumb with a chisel. But I suspect I'll be back to finish it in the coming weeks. When I do, I'll post more at the above link.
Thanks for your friendship. Looks like you've been up to fun. I just got a nice Mahogany 1X6 and a Maple 1X6 today. I'll mary them together to build another lap steel for #19. I like the lightness of the Mahogany and the contrast with the Maple. I'll cut some pockets for controls and pickup before I glue them up. Wings will add to the body sides and maybe a Rosewood finger board this time. ... Dave
Thanks for the friendship. I was just looking over your pictures. You have alot of very memorable builds. That is high praise on this site. The Chivas guitar is a real eye catcher.

No problem, Mike. Feel free to "adapt" away. Always good to add on a new friend.
So you just take a hacksaw and cut straight down the screw to create a channel for the string?
thanks. I'd love to see it.
Hi Catfish,
You liked my diagram of the Flying "V" Dulcimer. So, I thought you'd also like to read the build write-up I've done so far. That URL (link) is here:
