Check out Sylvan's plans:

I built this and wonder how I ever did without it! Thanks, Sylvan.

If you want to see an awesome guitar Trojy, check out Matt's at http://guitarjigs.com/trojy.html.

It is so nice looking that I am seriously tempted to scrap the one I have that is similar to Sylvan's and buy one just so that when people come in the shop to see what I am working on that they see a "Mercedes Quality" Trojy!!

By the way...Guitarjigs is one of our sponsors with the trojy being just one of the cool things he builds and supplies.

Guitar Jigs is indeed one of our sponsors, actually Mark Kett was the very first OLF sponsor!

His Guitar Trojy is awesome! I have a BAD want for one.
All of Marks jigs are that way though.

Dave,
I have one like the Sylvan mentioned. The cool thing about it is that when you're finished using it you just unscrew the pipes that the clamps are positioned on and store them away. That free's up work space.

I often get that way. But alas, if you can build a guitar, you can certianly make a mighty handsome guitar-holdy thing-a-ma-jig do-flicky item.

Lance I share your love for quality tools that look and function well. (BTW-Getting close to finishing up the guitar, I appreciate the help w/the bridge stuff)
