I could do that but don't want to put in that much extra work. Since the bridge is so wide I figure I can modify the doglegs in the cutting down process more easily than building a new bridge. I'm trying to figure out if there's a more efficient and accurate way than just eyeballing a band saw along one of the laminations.
