Ferrules - Cool Find

[idsnowdog]

I have been tweaking a Squier Tele that I bought off Craigslist cheap and I found I needed to drill for Ferrules because the bridge I bought was string through body only. I didn't want to go the ebay route and have to wait a month to get a set from China and I also didn't want to pay 10 shipping for some bdag in the USA. After an internet search for alternatives I found that bicycles use cable ferrules for their shifters and brakes. Functionally they are exactly the same and can be countersunk without leaving a lip and the local bicycle shop gave me a dozen for free. So thanks to Erik's Bike Shop for the save!

Bicycles . . . Is there anything they can't do?
