Hooray for rulers! For this, just find 10 cm. on the ruler and cut the ruler apart there.

Now lay the weird unnamable tool onto the wood, and make it centered. (see picture two)

Mark right underneath it where the screws are laying and remove the weird unnamable tool. Now find halfway in the short way of the ruler. Make an "X" where the two marks intersect. Grab your drill and make a 1/8 hole. This SHOULD fit the screws.

You can now hot glue the rubber centered onto the ruler. If you don't have a hot glue gun, but have the glue sticks for some reason, see my other instructable A Collection of Random Useful Tips, or just do the easy thing and read this: heat up the glue stick wtih a candle and smudge it onto the spot you want the rubber. Easy.

Now you're done with the top part of the capo! easy!
