I have machined and cleaned up the tuning head, made the nut bridge but still have the rollers to finish.
Thanks to everyone for their kind comments.

Re: My pedal steel No 2
Ron, that looks fantastic, what metal have you used there and what tools are you using to produce these parts?

Hello Geoff,
The materials are aluminium and brass, the machining is mainly done on a small milling machine, then polished, I followed 'Bent's' instructions on polishing.

Re: My pedal steel No 2
Hi everyone,
some more bits and bobs for my steel, I've been busy with other things, holidays, boat etc so the workshop has been a bit neglected.
I am still drawing out parts but these are what I have completed.
