Thanks Curt, Absolutely agree making your own is great when you're only playing or have a little extra time, but lots of times I need something to get a client's job done and want something ready to rock. I do like your ideas and will try making one of the smaller versions to see how it works. I have a couple face plates so that should work to try it. Are your square holes tapered slightly?
