OK Peeps, who can tell me what this jig is used for?
First correct answer gets a free Dingotone kit of their choice, a custom cut MOP nut and six months in the Naughty Warehouse for being a smarty pants...
Bet this one drives you all nutso :)
(Pitbull staff & Moderators excluded, international peeps get MOP nut and free neck setup on their next PBG order)
calculating neck break angles? i.e scarf joints
Nope...........Quote:

Yeah, that's what I thought cutting bone to the correct height, length and slotting.Quote:

if we get it between us , i'll go you halves... but my money is nuts or bridges, heights, slots, shapes, string take off angles
For removing old nuts?
Is it for holding a fretboard and marking/ drilling side dots?
Nooooooooooooo :pQuote:

The correct answer is within this answer :)Quote:

DB for the prize do you mean a custom cut bone nut ? MOP might be a bit brittle and expensive !
Cutting slots once the curve is done. Nut goes in vertically, moveable piece is an angle guide
Dingo claw trimming guide
OK. To be fair, Crusader had the right answer...
So what I will do is this.
Crusader gets a MOP nut and Stan gets the Dingotone :)
Let me know what you want the nut cut for, Crusy
And Stan, your colour choice
Oh, and I forgot to mention the correct answer is trimming nuts to height before radiusing
Well done crusy and thanks DB! Will get back to you on that, so many nice choices
such a simple jig DB for not an easy job to get the nut to the correct height accurately. Well done Crusy and Stan on winning a prize.
So DB they get 6 months each in the naughty warehouse ? can't cut the sentence in half haha
says me who has 3 x life sentences
I hear the beer and pizza is good, I will take the full six months
If crusy would like the prizes the other way around I'm happy to swap
@ Stan the beer and pizza is very good so you better tell your family you may not be home for longer than 6 months !Quote:

I have a custom PRS style PBG-N3E neck on order a nut to fit that would be fantastic.
I am hoping to do my own inlay work on it as well, maybe I'll have time while in the naughty wharehouse?
Thank you so much.
I do like to leave a clue somewhere... But from now on it is going to be very cryptic :p
good one DB everyone loves a mind bender and thanks for throwing in the generous prizes. Gets the forum cranking with people trying to get the correct answer
