Here’s a project I worked on yesterday and today. I tried to recreate a No Jive the best I could. I think it turned out fantastic. My home turned “kNOw JIVE” is made out of osage orange wood, weighs in at 66 g (5 to 10 g’s heavier than a regular no jive), and uses the same hex nut setup and wood sleeve. Plays smoother than the other two no jives I have. Last few picture shows a comparison with my other two no jives and an alternative hex bolt setup.
