After looking at the LMI tool for this job. Here's what I come up with. Once set-up the results are very repeatable. For the initial set-up Attachment: 100_4392a.JPG[/attachment Attachment: 100_4359a.JPG I set the fence as close as I could and made a test run. I needed about .007 less to be ground off, instead of moving the fence, I used two strips of tape that come out to about .007 and stuck it on the side of the sled that rides against the fence.This was just a quick set up to do the current guitar I'm working on now. An adjustable fence with some type of micro adjustment would be really nice if one was going to using this set-up quite a bit. Hope this helps. Jeff |
