I have the Woolsen neck jig plans. Does anyone have a picture of what it looks like when complete? Is there a tutorial of any kind on the construction process or how it operates?

If you Google "Paul Woolson neck jig" there's plenty of information available.

Michael, both of these videos are extremely helpful. The second one is for Robbie Obrien's jig. From the looks of it, though it is pretty close to the woolsen setup. Thanks for the tip!!

Zeke, you are right. I didn't know his first name. That did the trick. I'm sure I can easily get it from here. Thanks for your help!

How much fitting do you have to do with a jig like this? Seems like it would be just as fast to just set the neck the old fashioned way.
