Yeh, it's a floater. Setting intonation is a bit more fiddly than when you have a bridge with screw adjustment saddles. When I was doing my build diary @Simon Bardon suggested pitting some shallow pins in it, no glue, just to stop it moving about while being played, but so far my experience has been that string tension alone keeps it in place.

Looking good dood!
