Location: Campbell River, British Columbia		Further Adventures of the BFLG. Not rushing through this fix, as dread and worry are some of my favourite preoccupations. BUT; so far, so good.

Shaved down the tie block, which previously look like someone ran wrapped strings through the holes trying to saw through the wood. Very scary doing permanent damage with the intent of making things better.

also found a way to use very heavy deep throat clamps I already owned without putting unreasonable strain on the soundboard.

Nice work. It always feels good when you fix something yourself.
