    Thanks Stan but the quality is suffering in the final stage due to ,
    A. Wife's mustang taking all my work space
    B. Rushing to get it finished
    C. No real work bench and all tools sourced from either Bunnings or Aldi
    LOL

    Finally got it strung up.
    It's sounds ok. I've still got some tweaks to do.
    It's a temporary nut, but it lives!!

    good stuff Bruce looks excellent. Have fun. What tunings you using ? I haven't had much time to play my baritone lappy but the heavy string is tuned to G so its low low !
