Looks like my martin style bridge will be too close to the X brace--we live and learn! Yesterday someone mentioned using a pinless bridge to avoid the drilling problem--trouble is, I know nothing about these brisges or how to build one. I first started this build as sort of an experiment, but it is turning out beautifully and I'd hate to waste it by drilling into the X brace. Does anyone have or make pinless bridgess that I could purchase to install and complete this build. It would need to be ebony. I could supply the blank if necessary.
Thank

Mark Swanson did a nice tutorial over on the MIMF on how to make a pinless bridge.
