It’s definitely worth a shot isn’t it? 

Abso-bloody-lutely.

It is worth giving it a go John. Judging by your other work, I think that your more than capable of creating something that will work.

Cheers,

Russ. ✌️??

Given your engineering skills John, do you think that you could create something like this?

@russ I’ve thought about this before, I noticed them a while back. It’s possible, it’s just a case of making the different radii pieces accurately. It’s definitely worth a shot isn’t it?

I don’t think I’d come across that site before.  Thanks @david-johnson09

@clinton Thanks man, it takes a while to set it up but once you have, the bearings keep the saw blade straight consistently and prevent any wearing. The bearings also act as a depth stop for the height. If you want more detail, I can give you a list of what you need and a cutting list for the wood. 

Thank you deej / David, the tool is great and the site seems great and I didn't know about it. Will order one of those to see how things are going, 1.5 mm would do ...cheers!

  Wow John, nice jig! Mine is so much simpler but works quite effective. Same exact concept but it is held by a thin saw blade sandwiched on boards with the blade dull side up sticking out to where the fret slots on my Fretboard template catches. Works for me and I adjust my depth cut on my saw with a diy guide. I like the bearings! I think I am gonna incorporate that. Brilliant!

I think they are 1.5mm to 3.5mm. Contact them and they will source with any of the kits.
