Was Surfing the 'net, and came across this. The guy has a CNC shop, and put it to good use! Check out the battery box on this!

Also, scroll down on this page http://www.dkg-cnc.com/museum.html to get a description of the build itself... very cool!

Interesting design. Though not my cup of tea, there are some things I really like about it. Especially that bridge! But with a bodyshape like that, it will be very uncomfortable to play seated, it will keep sliding off your leg.

The builder mentions in his build statement... "For lap playing, I have a thin aluminum knee hook strut that is quickly attached to the body." Don't know what it looks like though, as he didn't post a pic of it attached to the body. I thought the bridge was a very cool feature, and machined by the builder as well. Not a fan of the knobs, but still, you can't knock someone who can handcraft their hardware!
