The shell can also bend and cause tuning instability if you keep wrenching the lug screws in as hard as possible. If you hear that squeaking stop screwing them in.

It finished up ok in the end. Couldn’t ever figure out why a few of the tube lugs wouldn’t tighten snug to the shell without the wrenching. (But I also could not leave it dangling a 1/4” from the shell either.) Next video in the series will have all of the in-studio playing samples. Turned out nice despite the speed bump.
