Howdy all. I`m looking for a post from last year (around August or September?) on making bridges. As I recall, it was around the same time as when pinless bridges were being discussed. The post was pretty in depth on procedure, and I`m thinking it was part of a post that got sidetracked. Anyone have an idea what post I`m talking about and able point me in the right direction? I`ve searched the archives and the site, but can`t seem to locate it.

Lance, is your jig based on John How's jig? I need to do this. It really says "guitarmaker" when you have a bridge on your guitar you made yourself. Congrats to all who do.

I`m afraid that`s not the one I`m hunting for. Maybe it was a pinless bridge. I knew I should have saved that one. I hate having Some-timer`s Syndrome!

Whadaguy! It's a great jig, and it appears from the article, you know how to put it to work. Okay, as soon as I get a break, I'm gonna go saw off some broomhandles and find me some plywood.
