Thanks Kevin. I have learned more from your content in last week of watching you than I have from watching other builders for the last year and a half.
Thanks again Kevin for an excellent video. I like these refinements I built one a couple of years ago for an electric guitar I was building but it had issues with repeatability so it going in the bin and I'll build myself one of these if you don't mind? The plastic waste bag is a great idea! I'm 72 I got hooked on wood at 11 years old and I'm still learning so thanks again for taking the time to teach👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks Kevin, very timely for me I've got two guitars that will be needing the mortise and tenon cut. The jig looks very straight forward. I am biggest guitar maker in my whole town of Mt Shasta Ca.
very nice jig.... i made the one from the plans from robbie o'brien from LMI... very similar to yours except angel adjustment is on the vertical (truss rod panel) with angel iron going right up and through the horizontal deck to place guitar to copy angle... insert their template and rout away.... i'am sure if you swap out bits you can make dove tail martin type also.... buy the way love your channel... you must have been one great shop teacher.... thank god i had industrial arts wood and metal classes back in the early seventies here in johnston ri . they no longer have shop classes in there school... how sad....anyway cheers to everything you do..
I'm not inclined to answer your question here, because it would be such an extensive answer. You have, however, given me some thought about doing a video on that very subject.
I would like to add my request for the “ determining the neck angle” video. Could you perhaps say briefly how high above the bridge position a straight shot up the neck sans fretboard would be.
Hi Kevin. It looks like the alignment of the ¼ inch jig and the ⅜ inch jig are different. In the case of the ⅜ inch jig it appears that you have routed into the vertical board that contains the spline. Am I correct? If so,why.?
Both of those splines are routed into the vertical piece, as a means of keeping them straight and in proper orientation with the other parts of the tool. I reviewed the video; there is a lack of clarity there,
Nice take on the jig. I made something similar from the StewMac plans and I found that I could use mine to do a neck angle reset (still refining the process). I'm sure you could do the same thing, although you probably already have a good way to do that job. ruclips.net/video/NX4eSFj1lMU/видео.html

Quite inspired watching your videos.
Thanks
So, as promised, I made one of these and have just used it for the first time. Works like a charm, thank you, Kevin.

Great stuff. Very well thought out thanks for sharing 👍
Another very useful tool. Thanks, Kevin.
Parabéns pelo seu trabalho. Muito bom. Excelente gabarito
thank you
Could you explain your method for determining the neck angle?

I look forward to seeing it. Thanks.

Howdy back. Hope you enjoy the videos.
