You are very welcome! Congrats to your success!

I had friction problems with the bender-bent strings drawn through bridge holes which were located close to the guitar body. If it works well in your case, the better, as the 'twang' of the string's sound is more powerful this way. If you ever encounter friction detuning though, it's the easiest thing to drill new holes close to the top edge of the ashtray (and trade some 'twang' for perfect tuning, but still sounds great).

Best wishes and Greetings -
