1 set large 1 set small screen door wheels 1/4 in thick piece of wood you will need longer bolt them come with the wheels. Drill 4 holes two for the bottom wheels 1 1/2 in. apart, one on the top of the slot and one at the bottom of slot to adjust the top wheel. ( you can drill the slot out or use a dremel) The wheels have a nut one the back that act like a spacer. The only tough part is cutting a groove in the top wheel to hold the tang. I used a razor saw it needs to be narrow to hold the tang. $5 and a half hour your bending frets

The hardware store was out of bearings Derek so I found these. Songs from the N.Y. tribute record. Kind of miss doing those.

I like the simplicity. Great idea and good music going on in the BG.

Thanks folks . You could use real bearing and aluminum bar that will cost $40 or more

Thanks for this RTZ! I've attempted a couple of radiused necks with mixed results. This is a great idea. Cool accompanying song too!
