Fret slot template 34 and 35 inch - G5

With this template you will no longer need to measure out your fret positions. Use in combination with the Fret slot miter box and allows for consistent and accurate fret slot cutting. The template has a different scale on each side with 2mm notches for all fret positions including the nut. Stick your fretboard on the template, position it in the miter box with the pin that is supplied with this template in the first notch and after cutting proceed to the following notch. You can also use this template without the miter box to mark your fret positions.

Made from durable and lightweight aluminum, equipped with an opening to hang it on the wall when not in use, that saves valuable storage space (for other tools).

Details

Use in the Fret slot miter box:

1. Set the ball bearings to the height and width of your saw.
2. Make sure your fretboard has an even bottom and top.
3. It is preferred to have the side that faces you when placed in the miter box at a straight angle so that you ensure proper placement.
4. Stick a few pieces of good quality double-sided sticky tape on the template.
5. Place your fretboard on the template, keeping sufficient distance at the first and last notch. Keep in mind that the slot is not at the same position as the notch! When in doubt, dry-fit the template in the miter box at the first and last notch and mark the saw positions.
6. Place the miter box at a good working height on a stable surface. Have two clamps at hand.
7. Position the template into the miter box so that the pin falls into the first notch. Make sure the side of the template sets straight against the side of the miter box and clam both ends of the template.
8. Push the saw through the ball bearings while making sure that the teeth don’t tough the bearings.
9. Start sawing and make sure you keep the saw horizontal. As the first notch is for your nut, you can saw all the way through – or in case you are placing a zero nut, than check your cutting depth regularly, till you reach the required depth.
10. Remove the saw by pulling it back, release the clamps and slightly lift the template up from the pin and forward so the pin falls into the next notch.
11. Place the template again straight against the sides, clamp in place and saw your next slot. Continue till all slots are completed. Always double check if the pin is in place, the template is straight against the side and your saw is moving in the right direction
