Creation of the bridge is very interesting to watch in the McKnight shop. It begins with an Ebony blank.





Then some very precise cutting on the CNC machine.

Cutting the saddle slot and drilling the starter holes for the pins at 2 5/16" spacing. • Video 1

Cutting the exterior shape. • Video 2

Cutting the snowflake inlays. • Video 3



Not a detail left untouched. Here the binding edges are softened.
