So, I decided the only thing I really wanted to make today was my guitar easier to play.
I have a movable bridge which is in two pieces.
The action was really high, and although, like driving a stick shift, it deters theft, I miss having feeling in the tips of my left hand fingers.
So, after a little online research, I found that the best way to lower the action is to plane or sand off the amount of wood on the bottom of the top piece that you need to lower the action.
Reassembled, still a bit higher than most guitars, but I didn't want to have to re-carve the part if I went too far.
My fingers are thanking me already.
