The next step is to rivet each resonator to two aluminum beams. Rivets are used because it's much cheaper to buy over 100 rivets than to buy over 100 nuts and bolts. Also they don't protrude into the inside of the resonator very much.
I made these anchor blocks with slits for the resonator support beams to rest in.
And of course, painted black.
The only thing left to build is the dampener bar and pedal, which could be very complicated to design.
Hey - just wanted to say thanks for documenting your work so well and explaining what you are doing in each step. I'm about to start on a vibe after the New Year, this is very helpful. Looks great! Harbor Freight forever!
