Does anyone have a tutorial or pics of some POWER fret slotting sleds / jigs for multi-scale fretboards?

Tim, the only thing I've seen is on Michael Doolin's website. It's a manual setup though.

Thanks, I've been looking for something like this as well. The table saw jig looks perfect for the task.

I print out a CAD file of the slot layout, stick it onto the fretboard
blank, and cut the slots by hand with a radial arm saw using a fret
slotting blade.



The printed slot lines are the same width as the blade kerf (0.023"), so its very easy to see when you might be drifting off.
