I cut it from round stock with a band saw. >What diameter > seems to work best? > Kindest Regards, > Garret What works best is whatever works best to keep as much counter bearing angle at the "capo" as possible, and still get enough angle at the brass insert that it won't buzz. As I said, I don't have numbers. I experimented until I had something I liked. Clamp or screw one each of the two types of termination pieces to a plank, and play with string and wooden dowels of various sizes until you find something that works. Then reproduce the dowel in brass. Ron N
