Installed a strap button on my OM-03

[lmacmil]

Some of you may recall my question about this a couple weeks ago.  I took the plunge today.  Used the button left over from my Gibson after it had a K&K installed.  Used the location recommended on the Breedlove site: 1.5" down from the top and .75" in from the body.  Used a nail to make a starter dent then drilled a 1/16" pilot hole.  Enlarged it to 1/8" (recommended hole for a #8 screw in hardwood).  Put a little soap on the threads and in it went.  I didn't have a felt washer so I made a washer from a fiberboard coaster.  Not too elegant but you can't see it when the strap is on so what the heck.  Btw, the more I play the OM-03, the more I like it.

Personally, I'd replace that washer.

Good job.

Good for you.  Creative use of the materials on hand.

Found a piece of dark felt today so the fiberboard washer is gone!
