Cigar Box Saddle / Bridge Aluminum Angle Stock for DIY guitar, fiddle, banjo, Description – This is for anyone who wants to make their own Saddle / Bridge for a Cigar Box instrument. They measure 5/8 x 1-1/2 x 1/8 thick x 48 inch long and you can cut to any length you desire or we can cut for a fee. If you are building a solid body guitar like a Tele, string thru the body is no big deal, however with cigar box guitars the body is hollow and if a string breaks, you have to have a way of restringing without loosening all of the strings, opening up the box and all of the other complexity. That is why a lot of cigar box builders run the neck right thru the guitar and have it shooting out the bottom- so that they can restring from there. The extra 5/8 height allows the strings to be threaded thru the back of the bridge plate which sits on top of the cigar box. To make these yourself you must: 1. Cut to your desired width. 2. Drill the holes. 3. Sand or file the rough edges. 4. Supply your own additional parts to finish as desired. They are easy to work with and are a 3003 type aluminum. We ship from three locations in NC, OH, and FL for the most rapid delivery possible. Note: The States of AK, AZ, CA, HI, ID, NM, NV, OR, TX, WA, PR, and GU have shipping surcharges. Please check “Shipping Surcharges” section below for amounts before purchasing. If purchasing three or less angles, flats, or tubes, there is high risk of bending in shipping due abuse of the shipper. You are responsible for any damage unless you purchase the :”Protective Packaging Option” (see below). They can be bent, shaped, or reshaped much more that big chain store angles and flats before they break because of the 3003 alloy grade. Our angles have a rounded bend instead of an sharp edge common to most extruded angles. The electrical and thermal conductivity is higher for this type of aluminum than other grades. Some pieces may have magic marker on them or light scratches. Light scratches are common, magic marker is rare. Combined Shipping for Multiple Items If purchasing one type of an item click on “Shipping and Payments” to see the price break on shipping. Combined shipping is not available for multiple items because we stock items in multiple shipping centers and we can not predict which items will be available at which centers at the time of your order. We can often offer combined shipping if you are purchasing more that 12 items please contact us by email or cell at: (six, seven, eight,)-(two, zero, zero)-(zero, eight, six, two). Lots of Applications and Uses! Can be used for: Ladder hangers, fences, signs, product design, hobbies, r/c, survey or garden stakes, electrical components, trailers, aircraft, automotive, drawers, furniture, outdoor, home, high power LED lighting, kennels, livestock, jewelry, cuffs, flashing, heat press transfer processes, radiators or thermal sinks, wind power, hangers for countertop deep fryer, guides for bubble wrap, balances as very cheap alternative to digital shipping postal scale, ruler, straightedge, vinyl cutter and sign cutting, hydroponics, wheel stops for portable gas power camping RV generator, brackets for hydrogen generation, Arduino projects, rulers, sliders of all kinds, mounts for infrared PIR occupancy motion sensor switch, CNC projects, little signs for laser engraving or routing, serial number tags, wind chimes, mobiles, for building 3D printer, wire holders of all kinds, and lots of other things! Visual Requirements These may have discolorations or splotches from time to time. This often looks white. This is rare, but if your application requires a good visual appearance please let us know in the notes section of your order so we may double check our stock and make sure you receive our best appearing pieces. Safety Notification These are formed through a fabrication process and may have sharp edges. We try to keep this to a minimum, but still recommend wearing gloves to protect your hands until they can be fully inspected to make sure it will be safe and will not cause injury to people for your application. Cutting Information and Custom Lengths or Different Sizes These cut easier than the big chain hardware stores because of its alloy. Most people use a fine metal tooth hacksaw, jig saw, and we have had reports of excellent results using a straight sheet metal shears. Ability to use a sheet metal sheers can lower the cutting and fabrication time of your project considerably. Warning: The use of circular saws can cause this material to jam and fly out violently. Most circular saws go too fast which cause the particles to become extremely hot and they fly much faster than wood that can create eye injuries. We can cut to length or cut different sizes for a cutting charge. For example we can take a 3/4 x 3/4 angle and make it a 1/2 x 3/4 angle. The cutting fees are as follows: Type of Cut First Cut Additional Cuts Example Cut to Length $2.00 +$0.50 Cut Length from 48 In to 41 In Cut to Size $2.00 +$2.00 Cut Size from 3/4 x 3/4 Angle to 1/2 x 3/4 Angle There is a tolerance of +/- 1/16 of an inch for dimensions 6 inches or less, and +/- 1/8 of an inch above 8 inches. If shipping international, many counties have a max shipping length less than 48in, which requires us to cut before shipping. For other custom sizes and lengths that we cannot cut down from our existing stock it usually $100 min because we are required to purchase full length or full sheet sizes from our suppliers. This applies to any dimension over 48in and any total width more than 12in. We can fabricate any size and shapes starting 1/2 in and we call also produce angles, channels and flats, in metric sizes. We have lengths longer than 48in but Minimum Order Quantity applies. For example a 1in angle uses 2in of material. 48/2 = 24 pcs. To figure cost: Cost = ((Desired Length / 48) * List price for 48in * Minimum Order Quantity) + $20. Shipping charges are additional. American Made! All my angles and flats are sourced and manufactured in the USA including all the raw materials that go into them. They are made in the states of NC and FL. Despite the lower price the quality is very consistent and high and we always strive to do better. Protective Packaging Option This option protects your items from shipping damage using a cardboard tube mailer. The cost of using this option is an extra $7.50 per order. Purchase quantities of 4 or more items do not need this option as the strength becomes so much more its very rare they get damaged. We must charge this much to cover our costs because the weight of the cardboard tube raises the weight of the order enough that we are required to use the more expensive priority or parcel rates. If you want the Protective Packaging Option please let us know in the notes section of your order when you pay and we will send you an invoice for the additional amount. Related Products or Packages I also have other aluminum angles or flats sizes available. You can find these by clicking on “Happy Stompers” store link at the top of this page.

Compare and Save, Buy More Save More After you add up all the shipping and taxes my price runs about 1/4 to 3/4 the price of big chain sources depending on how many you buy. The more you buy the cheaper each angle or flat costs. And I always have them in stock. Compare and save! 3003 Aluminum Alloy These angles or flats are made from 3003 Aluminum Alloy. This alloy is about 20% stronger than 1xxxx series having high strength and fatigue resistance. It has excellent corrosion resistance. They are easy to work with and can be polished, brazed, welded, machined, drilled, riveted, bolted, cut, bent, re-bent, sanded, grounded, painted, filed, and buffed to an almost mirror like finish. It can be bent and re-bent more times than higher number alloys before it becomes brittle and breaks. Does not become brittle in extreme subzero weather and keeps its structural strength to 700-900 degrees Fahrenheit melting at about 1150 degrees. Its high electrical conductance is good for making electrical components or for using as grounding stakes. They dissipate heat quickly making for good custom thermal radiators and heat sinks of all kinds. Customer Feedback: “I like the radius on the corner compared to the square cornered hardware store angles. I used them for the perimeters of the instruments panels on my homebuilt biplane. I used one straight piece for the bottom and slotted one to bend for the top and side perimeter. Attached them with 3/32" flush head aircraft rivets. I also used them to reinforce the sheet metal on the engine cowl side gull-wing style access doors. I also used them to build a triangulated frame to support and attach a battery box. an excellent product and a good price, highly recommended” Bob Questions and Answers: Q. Some of your product descriptions for 1/16 metal says it is less than 1/16th of an inch thick, how much less is it? A. The actual thickness is .050in and 1/16th of an inch is .0625in. The difference adds up to about the thickness of 5 to 6 sheets of paper. Q. Are they straight? A. They are very straight with straightness comparable to a sheet of glass.
