Mornin' Evrybody !

Great weekend coming up with lots of time to work on my guitar. Getting ready to cut and install my binding and purfling. First I need to build my binding jig.

Lets do, Show It Off Friday !!
Post a picture of you binding jig. Tell us if it is bought or built. What you like or don't like about it and how you would modify it. And what type of bit you are using.

Here's my quick/cheap binding machine. Loosely based on the LMI plans. I used drawer slides, mdf and dry wall screws. A StewMac router bit with bearing in a Ryobi laminate trimmer. Rubber bands for weight balancing springs. Worked just fine for two bodies this winter.
Good enough for the kind of women I go out with!

And this is the sled.
