Aw Barge that sux. After all the work you have put in it. I had been following this build very closely, tough one man.
I know the kits are only about $150 but its hard not to get personally attached after that much work.

Wow Nige that's such a shame dude , take a big deep breath take it out the bin . And a solution will come.
Looks like Adams on the ball.
absolutely gutting, surely you could plug the trem hole then get hold of a bridge with a larger footprint to cover it up?
That is really awful Bargy.
Great to see Adam's rescue offer though - Pitbull rocks.
Could you possibly salvage something by making a coffee table "a la Wokka" or a wall hanging "a la moi?"
I couldn't bear to actually bin it myself - even in a state of high dudgeon.
Argh dangit, that would have been a very cool kit if there wasn't a nice large gaping hole... Planning to rebuild it though Nige?
Also that service from Adam is not found anywhere else, always good to have service like that!
I'd personally get some scrap wood and plug it, then veneer over the top.
The blunt dryness of "that's a wrap" gave me a bit of a chuckle.
Sucks that your work ended up that way.
Understandable, bro. On the bright side, you have a neck and bits and pieces to start a scratchie....eh? Wouldn't be much more work than you put into this.
'As long as there's, you know, sex and drugs, I can do without the rock and roll.'
that sucks Bargie. New project will help you get over it!
