hey mike you are welcome to borrow any ideas you see on any thing i have built,i like it when folks get inspiration from work i do.aspire to inspire before you expire is a way i look at it.the little string grommets are rivets with the shank removed.that is a nice way to keep the strings from cutting into the wood and that little grommet prevents tuning problems.
