Yep but he didn't bug me as much as you did.
Thanks ovation player.
Well Nick,
I was taught that if you wan't to achieve things the only person who can make it happen is you.
Pet
Heck I'm not pissed off I didn't even mean to make a big deal about it.
Pet ,Thanks for taking action on my suggestion.
As my wife would tell you "he's ok with coming up with ideas not so good on follow through"
I still haven't glued the bridge back on my guitar My excuse is I don't have a clamp. At least not one that will fit a guitar. Is there anything that can be used instead of a clamp?

clothes pins
I think a clothes pin isn't long enough. What you need is a small block clamp small enough to fit in your sound hole yet no so large as to poke out from the back.

Your hands and paitence. Maybe hire a few neighborhood kids to hold it and pay them with candy. Or not pay them at all. ::)

I am assuming this is a bridge for a classical or a flattop.
I have had success with white glue and masking tape to hold the bridge in place and making a temporary clamp from two long wood slats laid across the guitar top and back. tie together the ends on one side put a block on the bridge and under the slat on the top tie a loop in a string and put it on the free end of the bottom slat then loop the string over the free end of the top slat and pull tight so as to put pressure on the bridge then wrap the string around the same ends of the bottom and top slat and tie very tight( do not over tighten so as to cave the top in, this kind of pressure is not required). Leave on for about 72 hours for the glue to dry. Worked for me.
