Indexing Jig
Developed this jig to ensure precise indexing of the fretboard and neck when assembling. The alignment holes are used to drill into the neck, fretboard and utility jig. The indexing holes are used to align:
-
- the neck in place during the contouring and shaping phase
- the neck in place for routing the truss rod channel
- the fretboard during the fret slotting phase
I was limited to the size of the print bed so I split it up into four sections ensuring it would maintain the centreline using material stiffness while reducing material usage.
