This is the best video I have come across for making a jig for this application I am starting my first 3 custom guitars I have been fixing and setting up instruments and amps for 25 years and have decided it is time to make my own instruments to send out to the world to enjoy as much as I do! Amazing content keep it up!
Very interesting. I've spent weeks thinking and planning on doing Jackson RR style bevels. Your approach is the opposite of mine. You are doing an external offset using a chamfer bit with a bearing. I didn't know that was possible. I'm instead getting a 120 degree v groove bit with matching bearing so I can create a bevel template with no offsets (laser cutting them). Thanks for sharing!
@@MauriceKindermann I have looked at the RR Jackson guitar style bevels and it looks very doable the way you are thinking of doing it. There are many approaches to accomplishing the same thing. None are right, and none are wrong.
Amazing! This saves alot of rasp work and the bevel is consistent, I'm gonna have to try this on a future build. You're always ahead of the game Randy, Great video!
Randy...You, sir...are a legend!
Thanks 😊

Shame you and Lloyd didn’t live in the same state. I think you two would have slept in shops working together.
Probably, lol
