I have been looking for threads on building my own bridges and have mostly run into folks building the one piece maple bridges. I made one of the one piece maple bridges for my first mandolin build which is a two point with all kinds of non-traditional woods. #2 is an f5 and I just had to build an adjustable ebony bridge. If it is any help to others out there I have decided to document my process of building the bridge and will post the photos and progress here. If anyone has any tips or techniques that you use, please feel free to post here. Questions are also encouraged! I'm starting out with a steel string guitar bridge blank, wheels and posts from Bill James and will be using a drill press, bandsaw and Dermel w/ router base. Here is a "before" picture.
