Installing a machine screw or bolt as a nut on cigar box guitars

At 11:20, I think the natural tendency is to cut deeper on the near side anytime you are doing a job. This video helped me tons. Thanks for the input.

Excellent information, thank you John

Great stuff thanks John, quick question - would you slightly file the nut like you would for a bone nut or just let them ride on top?

[@ChickenboneJohn]

Just let the strings sit in the grooves on the bolt, that's the whole reason behind using one.
