Guitar Neck Angle Sanding Jig
Posted: Tue Apr 18, 2023 5:32 pm
Recently, I decided to make my own Guitar Neck Angle Sanding Jig that attaches to my 'JET' belt sander. This jig is similar to the 'ELEVATE' jig that can attached to a belt sanders. Mounting the "ELEVATE' jig to a belt sander requires some additional attachment modification to mount it onto the belt sander. In my situation the 'JET' belt sander has a mounting plate that can be used to attach other types of jigs.
I already had some scrape 6mm thick aluminum plate and soon realised that all I needed to purchase was two mounting clamps from 'Timbercon' Melbourne and two T-Track knobs from Bunnings. To make the this jig I had to also tap threads into the aluminum plate for screwing on the control knobs. See photo attachments.
Using this sanding jig is a very helpful way to more accurately set the guitar neck and then make a Mortise / Tennon bolt on joint to the guitar body.
