Best part is... It was made only to drill 2 holes. Not even 1" deep. Oh the joy of having spare time.

edit: it will certainly be getting used for a ton other things now btw.

This looks fantastic, Scherzo.

Not bad for a 83 year old.

Ok shall we start taking bets on how long it'll be before you've built your own CNC with this stuff?

This was my thinking.

Having just built an MDF CNC machine for the intention of making guitars, this Ally stuff looks aweome

That's one hell of a jig. Pure awesomeness. At least now you can use it for doing all your other drilling.

Scherzo where do you get all the metal (aluminum?) to make these awesome jigs/tools.

Yep, what i like the most is that you can secure whatever you are drilling VERY well. With a normal drillpress you have very little space to secure it.

Naw man. Started school again last week, and the time I am at home I simply rest mah leg. I can barely stand looking at the guitar unfinished while I'm here, but I'll finish it eventualy.

I read through the entire thread...jaw dropped, wide eyed, and shocked at how clean, and detailed your photo progress was.. But now that I am at the end of the thread... I am quite dissatisfied there isn't more pics and progress updates
























Nice work though, it looks amazing!

When one guy's cutting in metric, and the other's cutting in imperial, you're bound to have at least a little bit of scrap metal laying around.
