Bone it is...I have the blanks to fashion them...but
....Will remove the metal saddle on the Stella and replace it with bone.....
....is it necessary to take the material off the bottom to lower the saddle to the correct height, or has anyone simply 'scalloped' the bone at the resting place of each string to seat it, with the saddle in place?
Other than aesthetics, I don't see any reason to keep removing the saddle several times to get a perfect fit for each string when 'sculpting' out the groove with a Dremel seems it might work.
