Seriously @likeakite!

That is a thing of beauty, just to look at.  The fact that it serves a practical function as well doubles the beauty.

And you made it - clever man!

Thanks so much for your kind words tv101...it was a fun project especially as my son had never used the lathe before.

Thanks Boo.....you're all so kind. As the string spacing is wider than a guitar on the lap steel, a normal slide wasn''t wide enough hence making this.
