Notching delignit bridge cap

[Farrell]

Yes, you can notch it by hand. Although I think I can pretty well guarantee 
that you will notch only one by hand (that is, if you finish the first one). 
It will be very, very difficult and you will have very bloody knuckles.

A notching machine looks exactly like what you build - i.e. there is no such 
thing readily available for purchase. The only two folks I know that have 
power notchers are Del Fandrich and Ron Nossaman. Del's is a hydraulic unit 
as I understand, and Ron's is a rotary bit that cuts/grinds the notch.

Building one is about #27 on my list of 1,000 things that I absolutely must 
get done yesterday.
