I've played around with 3 under, just can't get comfortable with it. I've also tried anchoring with my index, middle and ring finger on my tooth but it feels really funky. Middle finger just feels natural.

I really want to make a board bow this winter. Instead of the ferret floppy, I've been playing around with the idea of mounting a hardwood dowel, maybe 3/8"ish as a shelf. Think it would work?
