Binding Router Jig

Works great and an awesome price. Saved hundreds on the competition and a great quality tool. Works great. I used some small bungee as a spring function to lighten up the weight. Also used it to route a channel on my fretboard. Rode the raius perfectly. Im still finish sanding but here's some photos.

Excellent Quality

I am a luthier my many years of experience and I always make my own jigs. This time because of the price I decided to order this binding jig and I am very surprised by the quality. The competitors jig is more than three times the cost and it is exactly. Thanks for Elmer’s producing this jig quality at that price.

Initial impression on built quality

I am still making adjustments so have not yet used the jig to cut binding channels. There found a few issues that, although they may not affect performance, but I knew I'd kick myself for later if left unadjusted. Firstly, the router mounted correctly and seems to float nicely. However, the upright had a bit of play in the left-right direction, and I was more comfortable adding side supports which removed this play. I also was not comfortable with the sled cradle supports. The metal brackets are sharp on all the edges, and the small plastic supports only shield the bottom/top from the sharps not the sides. I started to file down the edges, but then decided to replace them with a more finished bracket and replace the plastic support with cork lined wooden supports that both support the instrument and protect the sides. I found the purchase worthwhile as it provided a worthwhile template and was easily modifiable.
