Kenneth Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 What accuracy do you aim for when building a jig? I made a routerplanning for necks but I'm not satisfied with the accuracy. The differance in height at most is 0,3mm (just above 0,01"). I'm guessing I'm way to picky, but I just wanted to check your opinion. My opinion in these matters are that any errors will multiply as you go along. Those 0,3mm will increase to 0,6 when I add the fretbord (routed in the same jig), and after routing the radius I could end up with 3* the error almost 1mm... /Kenneth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattia Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 ...as accurate as possible and necessary. Frankly, if the jig's made of wood, just sand it until it's level and square. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fookgub Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 If your jig is just slightly out of square, can't you just alternate the direction of each piece thereby canceling out the error? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
