This week, the routing templates get cut on the CNC and fitted to the fixture. After that, i set about making the vise that will hold the body in place while routing. Things are moving along well!

In this episode we begin the process of building a neck joint fixture for guitars. It will also serve well as a tool for doing the heel graft inlay as well. First steps are to cut up all the parts and assemble the base.

This episode, I finish up getting the 'neck flap' mounted to the fixture with a little creative clamping. Then I also get the body vise jaws made and mounted so that part is done. After that, a little template mounting and things are almost done. Just a couple more pieces and we can start test cutting!

This week the jig is completed by making the neck clamping system and then doing a couple of test cuts to ensure the templates work correctly. The final results are quite surprisingly good and I'm very pleased with how the jig turned out.
