Location: Pacific Northwest Inland Empire | Thanks, Dave! As I disassembled & tweaked a few things, I have determined a few issues. As to my question of bottoming out the saddle, there is a threaded fitting at either end of the saddle carriage, so its length never come in contact with the soundboard. If my intention is to have full contact of the saddle with the top, I will need to do some fancy calculating to make a spacer for the free space between the bottom of the saddle carriage & the top of the soundboard.
I mean, I haven't got a life anyway, so this is an engaging challenge. Along with engaging in this pedantic conjecture. My Waterpik is not clearing up my chronic Dictionary Breath, ostensibly. |
