Mine is pretty much the same as Kim's. I use it to scallop braces and bridge ends, thickness the headstock, and other tasks. Works good even on my little belt sander. Attachment: DSCF0415-1.JPG Attachment: DSCF0417-1.JPG

Hmm. I don't have one of those, I just use the round end and do it by hand. That looks like a good idea. |

Those jigs are also useful for thinning steel-string bridge wings. Arranging dust collection can be tricky- I use mine in the garage with the door open. (Or use the Safe-T planer for headstock thinning and finish off in the thickness sander (no conveyor)). Cheers John |
