    Quite a simple device made from 12mm MDF.
    Key points are the top edges need to be square and parallel.
    As you can see, I cut two openings for clamps and two blocks that fit snugly inside.
    The blocks allow you to set the depth of timber.
    Also, as the blocks can be set and clamped at any angle you can fix the blank so as to be able to machine a nice neat scarf or to dress the face of the headstock.

    Also, after you have glued your laminate you can machine the uneven side flat.
    Flip it over and repeat.

    Like I said, a simple jig that can be modified easily to do a heap of jobs.
