Nut Vise 

Posted 12/8/2008 5:49:07 PM

Here is a simple vise that can be used to hold the nut while cutting and shaping slots. It uses a short piece of "fret board" at the front to simulate an actual fret board. A simple eccentric cam at the back locks the nut in place while it is being worked on. A pencil which has been sanded so only half remains serves to mark a line on the front face of the nut to use as a referance in determining how deep to cut the initial slots. Stay slightly above this level when shaping slots to their final dimension.

The jury is still out on this one, but I'll continue checking back to see what new and cool way you have of doing things.  It is great to see you sharing the information.
 
Thank you.
