Here at Texas Toast Guitars we understand that the world is a mixed-up place right now… Even more than usual! We joke around a lot about “Safety Third” but the fact is that maybe laying low isn’t the worst idea? Of course, that is easy for us, we spend a lot more time with the beloved pin router than we do people.

Hey Matt and Chris! Happy Thanksgiving! That's an awesome jig/concept! I've not been able to get myself a beloved pin router like yours yet, still am totally jealous about it, but you guys make such great and interesting videos, I just suck it up and endure that feeling. May I ask at how much rpm you running that bit? I used one of these on a router table, but boy did it scare me, your way allows it to be way safer, more distance between where you hold it and the bit...
@TexasToastGuitars

Hi Steve, that pin router runs at 10K, the Grizzly is twice as fast. The real advantage is power. You can't slow down or bog the pin router

@michaelailer5623

Really like the setup. 2 questions. 1. Would it be worth the time while the neck is in the fixture to move it to other Pin Router with a standard 1/2 inch end Mill and hog off the excess ridge on the spline? 2. How above having a channel for the pin to follow the can help shape the neck heel and neck/headstock intersection? Another great video from Matt and Chris.
@TexasToastGuitars

I usually just cut the spine off with the band saw but for the video I wanted to show how fast is was on the dead head sander. As far as the heel and headstock... NOTHING is faster than our sander for 3x3 headstocks

I'm not a super fan of the bits that are supposed to be a specific profile. We have one and have used it a few times. Maybe I'll do another video about it (we did one a while ago) and see if I changed my mind. It would be nice to see it unlike the way we used to use in on the router table. I am not familiar with Ryan's other techniques, I'll have to check it out
@pops71
@pops71 3 года назад
@@TexasToastGuitars Yeah, he does this thing where the jig rides on the pin and he bit rolls the fretboard edges and bevels the frets. He calls it sea glass, so I’m not sure what the final result looks like. He did a lot of OEM work for a while and banged out a lot of batch work. I’ve never seen anyone who does pin router jigs like him. He has what looks like 100’s of them hanging from the ceiling.

First of all, I do not have personal experience with these specific bits, but I have seen available on Amazon, the SJE Tools Neck Profile Router Bits, available in a Fender'esque Modern C profile, Gibson D, and Soft V profiles. Also available, but not on Amazon is a Wizard profile bit, which could be great for some 24 fret builds. In theory, they would work better to get closer to a final shape faster without that center rib being left on the neck. These bits might even work to profile a neck blank with a handheld router, if you are very careful and go very slowly. EDIT NOTE: I've reread my original post, and it completely came off like I had personal experience using this product, which I do not, so I have edited it to be more clear. I should have asked if anyone here had actual experience with these bits, because in theory, if they work, they might be of use. I'm a machinist, so I am very aware that not all cutting bits are created equal, and really don't know if the SJE bits are even usable.

It's pretty slick... I have yet to meet anyone who loves sharpening a drawknife or spokeshave

@@TexasToastGuitars spokeshave ain't t bag. I wish I could pull the handles in my mora draw knife but no such luck. Might invest in the cranked handle style ([ shaped) just for the ease of sharpening while I wait to be able to afford a router table, honestly!

Similar to how I do it, except I had to make my overhead router. Definitely faster than standing there with a rasp and draw knife all day

Since the jig is simple to make, why not make one specifically for Fender style necks?
@TexasToastGuitars
@TexasToastGuitars 3 года назад
I'm not sure what I would gain by doing that? I don't really like uni-taskers and the only one I think people should worry about having is a fire extinguisher. The wedge is compatible with every guitar neck we make... you just scootch the neck around until you find the sweet spot. One could spend a lot of time customizing things to work with specific items. Wedges, clamps and special holders are cool to make and figuring out the geometry of those things is a cool challenge. Like I said though, the beauty of this very simple set up is that is it simple, straight forward and easily works with multiple necks.

@@TexasToastGuitars I was thinking that maybe the center riser could be removable, and you could have different types for different necks, with whatever angles and markings you need, and then just have them held down with something quick and easy, like wing nuts. That’s probably me just over thinking the design, but if you guys end up making this your go to neck shaping jig, then maybe it’ll be worth it. Big fan here in Houston TX. Thanks for everything that you guys do, and happy holidays.

You can use a radial arm saw too flip the motor and put a drill chuck in it. Ive been building guitars for 40 years and you can lift the motor up and down using the hand crank . you can pick them up for 100 bucks

@@augustwilke4262 Our radial arm saw has a drill chuck on the side opposite the blade. The manual says you can use it as an overarm router. It would never occur to me to try... of course, I haven't been building guitars since 1980. I'm sure you have tricks and secrets that we could all learn from. Please start a RU-vid channel so we can see this kind of thing in action. I'll be the first to subscribe.

I think taking so much meat at once is decremental to the stability of the neck. It is best to at least do one pass and let the neck rest couple of days, then go for again. What do you is fine for as production.... like the videos thought

@@TexasToastGuitars I could do it with a spokeshave too but why would I need a jig? The whole premise of the video was to speed the job up a bit without buying a pin router.

My comment is not to remove such much meat at once. It would be better to take less wood between a spam of several days to allow the wood to move a release internal forces and pressure with the grain.
