Build This Jig

In this episode, you'll discover a game-changing jig that I made to ensure your guitar form stays perfectly straight and easily removable once the top and back are glued in place. This step is crucial for maintaining the structural integrity and overall quality of your guitar.
This jig is incredibly simple to make using just scrap wood from your shop. By adding a turnbuckle, you can create a custom-made spreader in minutes. You'll love the efficiency and effectiveness of this handy tool!
Thank you for joining me on this journey of guitar building. Your support means everything, and I'm excited to share these practical techniques with you.

I’m sincerely in awe of your talent! I had commented once how many steps to build a guitar.. well I’m beyond count! I can’t play guitar (trust me for 40 years I’ve tried) I don’t think I could ever build one..but it love watching you do it to perfection! ~Cara 🥰

Wow, thank you!

[@immik3]

you know its a good day when you see a new Monty video just showed up.

[@MontyMcKinnon]

Oh, man that's so nice. It's not getting any easier but I keep trying.

[@kwaktak]

That is pretty useful jig to have, Monty. I bought something similar from StewMac but I don't think it was meant to be used with a table saw; maybe only block plane laid on its side, shooting board style. I may have to modify it.

[@MontyMcKinnon]

It's so fast one needs to pay attention or risk a mistake. I would like to see what you come up with.

[@rongetman6375]

Actually ist is essential tremor which is the opposite of Parkinson's. Apparently no cure available so I do the best I can and carry on.
