Re: 23" scale model fretboard for lapsteel
I also noticed that the thickness of of your headstock reduced the amount of the post sticking out.If the thickness is around one half inch, the post will protrude more and give you more to wind the string on.As your other poster mentioned, I learned all these things the hard way!

Re: 23" scale model fretboard for lapsteel
I noticed on your last headstock pic that the low string is almost ready to come off the post. If the string is wound from bottom up, it will tend to hold the string better.otherwise it sure looks like a great first attempt!
Hope this attached pic helps- Fri Jun 04, 2010 9:11 pm

Allan can we see a pic of the back. I sort of see how you are doing the bridge. It looks like a mount from the back . nice looking and I like the body shape!!
