Neato. I really dig the various double cut Teles I've seen. Might have to build one myself.

What part is crazy? That you're using a left-handed bridge? Well, you'll be tarred and feathered for that heresy!

It always seems to me that the upper bout looks deeper than the lower bout on DC teles. If I was going to build one, I'd make the upper bout slightly shallower than the lower one, just to please the eye.

that looks nice, but the pickguard looks out of place. To the top of the left horn like mine looks better to me personally.
