000 guitar build - bridge pins

The holes for the bridge pins were enlarged using a reamer.

Once they were the right size, I cut slots to act as channels for the strings to sit in. The pins supplied with the kit were slotted themselves, so I did not have to do this, I just happen to like it that way.

I turned the pins around backwards so that the channel in the pin faces away from the strings. Eventually these will be replaced with unslotted pins.
