Some work on the six string cigar box guitar

I have put the pick up into the box and marked the placement of the bridge the next thing is to place a support for the bridge in order to stop the string tension lifting the lid off the box.
This will be the first six string guitar I have attempted to make so fingers crossed.
If this works might just try a Uke or a resonator guitar. I still have a Les Paul kit to work on, and have just picked a squire strat for parts.
 I think it might be wise to use up some of the parts that are building up.
The one thing I don,t want to do is get into the painting or varnishing of the guitars not that is beond my capabilities its more that I do not have a dust free area to work in and nothing would look worst than a badly finished paint job.
I don,t and never will have a set plan when buiding the guitars I look at all the parts I have to make a build and start from there no parts are Item specific for a perticulair  job unless requested
Any thoughts or questions Ideas about my builds please ask.
