Bolt on neck holder with Improvements!
I made up this holder for when I'm doing the fret shaping, fingerboard cleanup and nut installation. Rock steady and I can use two hands on the fret file.

Re: Bolt on neck holder
Not yet. I plan to put a section of t-track under one end. Good eye!

Re: Bolt on neck holder
After some modifications and a little re-working I like this jig even more. I mad the tenon mount moveable on a t-track to allow for different neck lengths and the headstock support pivots to accommodate the angle better. Thanks for your comments.

Re: Bolt on neck holder with Improvements!
Thank you John. Feel free to copy. I'm sure you could make a second tenon end for dovetail joints.
