great...watching a master doing his art

Again thanks for doing these. Looking forward to the next instalment.

Nice work. I like the use of the flat washer to scribe/Mark the arch onto the Ebony blank. Solid carved one piece Ebony Bridges produce best Tone but are time intensive to make and Get Dialed in for action and intonation

This is great to watch -- thanks. One question: how do you figure out where to place the string contact points on the saddle? This is the thing I particularly want to learn, and I was getting quite excited waiting for you to get to that stage...but you went past it very swiftly!

What kind of wood is the body made from?

How do you mark the intonation before you assemble it with strings?🙏🏻💜🇨🇦

Would angling the bridge on the guitar work as well?
